Was it just me or did the 3D budget get spent on the opening sequences? The first 5 or 10 minutes had me smiling and dodging, almost had to swish my hands in front of my face just in case but as the story grew into place I don't really remember things popping out anymore. It was a fun story none the less, and informative too for any fan of the visual arts. Travel back to a visual experience only glimpsed today in the older architectures of Paris. Then travel back again as the characters explore a mystery with clues tied to a previous era of art and invention. All in all a fun story to watch if you are in the mood for something light iced with a 3D visual flourish.
