While watching "Madeline", it was a shock to see the Notre Dame, now that the famous cathedral has had a fire that burned out an entire section (miraculously, most of the building remained unharmed).
The movie itself is nothing special. It's all about little Maddy getting into and out of mischief to the chagrin of her ward. Like the books, it'll be entertaining to people below the age of ten. It apparently takes place in the '50s, but all sorts of things don't match up with that. Typical family flick that cares more about being "cute" than about a complex story. The tykes will enjoy the movie, everyone else will roll their eyes at it.
