Agreed! Jeunet most definitely is not a hack! You only need to see a few seconds from any of his French films to know it's him. He has a wonderful eye for detail and a great feel for physical comedy. I'd love to see him and Dominique Pinon do a silent film
It was just clearly a mistake to feed someone with that distinctive a vision into the Hollywood machine.
I do still think The Newborn is a fantastic bit of creature design though
