It is impossible to take your eyes off the screen. Read full review

It moves so fast you almost forget it leaves the characters in its wake. Read full review

Mr. Showbiz Kevin Maynard

What ultimately keeps Titan A.E. from taking off is an ordinary script. Read full review

The real star of the movie is the background work. Read full review

This is one of the best cartoons of my childhood, I absolutely loved it back then and still love it now. What's surprising is that I still enjoyed re-watching it in 2019, which is testament to how good it is even despite having somewhat outdated graphics by 2020 standards.

The scene of Titan escaping the Earth at the very last second gives me chills even nowadays, so does the ending sequence. I can totally recommend this movie to any Sci-Fi fan!… Expand

I really enjoy this movie, it's a shame that it never became hit, but nowadays it gain a cult following. Not prefect, but good fun sci fi movie.

Un film d'animation américain, c'est rare. Un film qui ne soit pas sorti du trou de balle de Disney ou Pixar, s'entend, à savoir des niaiseries (sauf incroyable exception) super débiles qui n'ont pour seule fin que de laver la cervelle des chiards déjà passablement demeurés. Car en dehors deUn film d'animation américain, c'est rare. Un film qui ne soit pas sorti du trou de balle de Disney ou Pixar, s'entend, à savoir des niaiseries (sauf incroyable exception) super débiles qui n'ont pour seule fin que de laver la cervelle des chiards déjà passablement demeurés. Car en dehors de ça, ,nous n'avons plus que les Japonais pour produire encore de l'animation de qualité (enfin la plupart du temps) et heureusement qu'ils sont là.

Surtout qu'il s'agit de science-fiction du genre space-opera qui puise sans vergogne ici et là dans le vaste catalogue des idées plus ou moins ressassées ad libitum ou ad nauseam, c'est selon... mais Titan A.E. connaît ses classiques et les exploite ici avec une allégresse et une jubilation très communicatives.

Après une Terre anéantie et une espèce humaine en voie d'extinction, l'étrange vaisseau Titan reste le dernier espoir de l'humanité et pour le retrouver, un blanc-bec forte tête, une pettie caille et un baroudeur cynique (ainsi qu'une équipe pleine de diversité xénomorphe) ne seront pas de trop face à la menace d'une race belliqueuse qui ne veut pas vivre ensemble !

Si les inspirations Star Wars ou Star Trek sont nombreuses, le film a sa propre identité et un monde cohérent, des personnages bien délimités et des rebondissements... A dire vrai, le rythme est très élevé d'un bout à l'autre et il se passe toujours quelque chose... de souvent spectaculaire. Si quelques clins d'oeil hystéro-bouffons parsèment le film, Titan A.E. demeure néanmoins suffisamment sérieux pour que l'on y croit et sait rappeler l'importance de ses enjeux, prétextes à une pure aventure endiablée et fort créative.

On regrettera la musique désagréable, sorte de chansonnettes rockprouts et soupe commerciale idoine ainsi que le choix de la réalisation en 2D même si celle-ci est correctement animée. On regrette d'autant plus que nombre de passages ont été réalisés en images de synthèse et si l'ensemble est bien mélangé, on aurait aimé une synthèse intégrale !

Quelques rebondissements font par ailleurs certainement tiquer, surtout à la fin... mais soit ! le film en dehors de son statut d'ovni dans le genre reste réjouissant de par son tempo effréné et sa direction artistique très soignée avec en prime une excellente VF.… Expand

Traditional animation was already falling out of favor when Bluth’s Titan A.E. dropped into a market that would sink other similar sci-fi products (WB’s Iron Giant, and Disney’s Atlantis and Treasure Planet). Fox Animation Studios would close soon after, six years after its inception.

An incredible flawed movie I like. I would say that the worst part of this movie is that it doesn't give itself time to breathe and a piercing is way too fast. I also think they should have given themselves more time to create it just an hour and a half is a bit too short for it. But I enjoyAn incredible flawed movie I like.

A long winded, borderline random series of sci-fi cliches, strung together with a weak story and weak characters, Titan AE is one of those films that just doesn't make any sense to me. It has a massive following, but I don't really understand why.

The movie revolves around the main character, Kale, who has been somehow encoded with a map to Titan, humanity's chance at recovery. Why this has been done to Kale is never explained. Along the way, he gets a variety of aliens friends, whose personalities flipflop essentially at random, to help.

Literally everything in this movie is a cliche. There is not a single original thought in this movie's head. Besides a decent presentation and some okay voice acting, this movie is bottom of the barrel C-list garbage.… Expand
