Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

3rd-row I stumbled into this movie after seeing the preview and thinking this would be a nice clever movie to watch and it was for the first half-- until Chloé becomes ill. The movie starts with vibrant colors, wonderful visual action, meals that are literally animated. Just look at the photos on IMDb. All happy. I really enjoyed the first half. Then Chloé gets a lung infection and her lover/husband Colin goes on a quest to save her. The film turns dark (literally) and by the end I felt like I'd been watching John Hurt in "1984". That crushed. You have been warned.

July_Faraday I really liked this movie, despite the weird visuals. The movie represents life itself, and its truth is universal, it reflects today's society as well the one in the beginning of the last century when the book was written. The love story is heartbreaking, and you root for the characters until the end and try not to lose hope. Somehow you find yourself along the story. The obsession of Chick about an author/philosopher strongly symbolizes today's society, where we idolize things, we are obsessed with material possessions. Audrey Tatou is great in the movie, as well as Romain Duris, they make a perfect screen couple and deliver the essence of it. I really recommend this to everyone who wants a movie that will linger for a long time and will make you think deep about it.

kkcaroe I suffered this movie for the first hour. I saw it in a local art house. There were 10 people in the audience. After 30 minutes, the first 3 left. 15 minutes later 2 more left. After and hour, I left. It was the stupidest film I've seen in years. Waste of time.I get there is a book that I hadn't read but, still, the movie should speak for itself. I didn't find anything about the first hour to be clever or creative. It seemed like a random mix of shots and angles by someone on an acid trip. I don't pretend to be some kind of hot shot movie expert but, as a member of our area film society, I do see about 40 films per year. I've seen good films and bad films. This was just a stupid film.I hated it.

Ellie_k This film is so captivating by its surrealistic beauty. There were quite a few moments in which I felt completely immersed into the world which unfolded before my eyes. Regardless of the surrealistic interpretation of everyday life, all emotions and the essence of everything that happens to the main characters is so realistic - all the joy, the moments of shyness, the starving for affection, the soreness of despair, the unfaithfulness - all of those are pretty real and everyone can recall having felt some of those ways in certain times of their lives.Moreover this film takes the audience through a blend of emotions going from one extreme to another and revealing both the beauty of true happiness and the bitterness of absolute sorrow.I highly recommend this film to everyone who is looking for a worthwhile experience.
