Le Petit Spirou is adapted from a children’s comic based on the adventures of Spirou and Fantasia. If you don’t know them, discover their comic book story. Le Petit Spirou takes an extraordinary look at Spirou’s childhood and presents him as a turbulent and provocative child. Comic book creators Tome and Genre also appear as hotel guests in the film.
We can see actors known and loved by the public, such as Pierre Richard (Grand Pope), François Damiens (Monsieur Mégot) or Philippe Catherine (Abbé Langélusse). Their characters from all 19 albums (+ 1 special issue) are in the comic book collection during this run.
What will they like?
- Spyru and his romance with Suzette, they are so cute.
- The moral is that parents should listen to their children and let them choose their destiny rather than imposing a fixed path on them.
- Spyru’s group of friends, from the Vertininas to the Poncelots, who are true friends to the young lad.

What might be bothering them:
- A caravan of mysterious visitors, quite disturbing and dark.
- Falling off the cliff top with Spiru and Suzette on board. Fortunately, they are saved by a parachute and the landing goes smoothly.
Note that if your kids liked the movie, the animated series Le Petit Spirou came out in 2012 on the M6 and could also charm them.
