Sylvain Chomet adapts and animates a never-filmed Jacques Tati story depicting a Tatiesque magician who goes from France to Scotland, where stony Edinburgh is lovingly cartooned. The whimsical wit and magical moments are barely developed from soft ideas. A brief glimpse of Tati’s classic Mon Oncle reminds us what is most missing: Jacques Tati. (2011) — David Elliott
