In this pair of sequels to his 2006 children's fantasy, writer-director Luc Besson tells the continuing story of Arthur (Freddie Highmore), an adventurous 10-year-old who returns to the land of the elfin Minimoys to help them defeat the evil Emperor Maltazard. Blending elements of live action and animation, the films also star Mia Farrow as Arthur's grandmother and feature the vocal talents of Snoop Dogg, Lou Reed and other high-profile artists.
