If you are a fan of Bryan Fullers work (Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies) then you will LOVE this movie.

It is so beautiful and rich in colour and a joy to watch.

Utterly brilliant!
Review date: 2008-07-30 Rating: 10 out of 10

I had this DVD in my collection for approx a year, given highly recommended by a friend, but kept picking it up then down again, being put off by subtitles. Eventually one Saturday afternoon, with nothing on TV, I thought I would give it a try, fully expecting to give up part way through. How wrong I was..... A captivating, entertaining, picturesque and thoroughly enjoyable film. One of those that you want to know how it is going to end, yet you really don't want it to end as that will mean you can't watch it anymore, if that makes sense?!!

Finding love
Review date: 2008-02-10 Rating: 10 out of 10

This superb film is about the oddball girl of the title, and how she comes to find love through the strange characters that surround her in her life.

The opening section of the film is very funny as we are told of each characters personal likes and dislikes. These are not earth shattering things, but the trivial things that we all (OK most of us) take for granted like cleaning out the toolbox. The film uses a narrator to tell us these things, and this technique works well, mainly because the film is wonderfully well-written. Because of this what seems completely illogical at some points all falls beautifully into place.

Amelie it turns out although a shy and withdrawn girl on the surface, has a sharp and scheming mind which leads to some marvellous scenes, all of which I might add are directed with a huge amount of style and panache. For a film just over two hours long it maintained my interest virtually continuosly and its certainly one that I will be watching again.

Its a film like this that makes you realise what a lot of rubbish is coming out of Hollywood these days. I say that as a person who is not a fan of foreign language films. However this is something very special and I can't do justice to it in a short review. See it for yourself and find out.

Wonderful, funny and charming

Audrey Tatou. Audrey Tatou. Audrey Tatou. I couldn't ask for more of Audrey Tatou. This film is, in a word... brilliant! A real, real feel-good film. One that will make you laugh loads of times; one that will make you feel imaginative, like Amelie, and it'll make you feel a mile high! It is a marvelous picture. Random, magical, weird, but stunning! A real watch. Such a good movie!

Gorgeous
