Has anyone seen this yet?...I want to discuss it but I don't know if you guys have even seen it or if you think it's too chick-flickie.

I want to see it, but it's not in theators around here. Isn't that a foreign film?

Amelie..sounds like something iv'e never heard of...

haven't seen it, but it got supernaturally good critics over here.

seen it, good movie indeed

I've heard it's very charming and weird like.
I'll see it when it opens here

It is a very cute story... and it's done by the same director that did City of Lost Children I think.

I`ve seen it too.


Man, I loved it.
It`s not a girl movie....every man/boy should see it as me ...

it was one of the best movies of the year to be sure!

yeah, this film is fantastic (if you don't mind subtitles for all you anglophones). Definately go and see it. just a word of warning: there are no explosions or car chases.

::In a whiny voice::
But those are the best parts.

no!
you won't miss them in this movie!

I heard it has some nude seens is that true?

( o y o )

Boobies!

Hmmm..not enough for you to get your kicks, Lance...

Damnit!

It's French so that put me off.

No, no...
I didn`t understand one word of french either, but I could still see it.

You can be russian for all I know...it doesn`t mather....the movie is so good.

I meant that it was made by a French director.

Hehe..oh..

I'm such a dork
I haven't seen it yet, cause I thought it hadn't opened here yet
Turns out, it's been open since early November of last year and it's at an arthouse theater, just down the street from me.
I'll see it this weekend

It's supposed to make Paris look really nice, because the director digitally removed all the grafitti and dirt from the streets.

well, I guess that`s one way to go

I don't think you should let it being made by a Frenchman put you off, KJ..it really is a cute movie and I think you'd find it charming.. Amelie is supposed to be a lonely dreamer and I don't think that's particularly French.

Amelie got 4 cesars out of 19 (cesars=French version of the oscars)

I really loved amelie, saw it two times.
I'm just disapointed it didn't get any oscar, although this movie is a lot better than bridget jones diary for example...

I think it should have gotten an Oscar for something..I guess that since it's an American Academy they feel inclined to ignore whimsical French films

yeah, at least they didn't ignore the african americans this time...
however, amelie is the best comedy I've seen in a looooong time

dont watch french movies

It should have won oscar...absolutely

Sucks to see a French film, have to read the subtitles all the time. really really sucks

What's wrong fint?..don't you read so good?

I dont want to get bother with reading, I wanna watch the movie without distraction

I loved the movie. I got a chance to watch it on DVD and there are some really good extras on it. You guys should deffinately get it on DVD. Love the soundtrack too.

you sure? I thought there was one somewhere else...

technically, the movie could only win one oscar: best foreign movie

but yeah, wuved it

There was a thread in the Movie Reviews Forum :

Yeh I liked this movie too. Kinda surprising since its french

Kidding, french cinema is doing really well

Didn't enjoy it much, it was average

I like this movie, I have it on DVD
I even have the soundtrack, the music is what I like the most

It is

What I meant was were the voices of the people over riden by english speakers in the english version

Oooh I've never seen the English version, I have the one where is all in French and there are subtitled letters in English or Spanish

Yea, that's the one that was here

I finally got around to seeing "Amelie", and I don't know that I have ever been so smitten by a Foreign film in my life. It was just pure magic, and a ton of fun.

The cinematography was just unreal. I'm literally giddy after watching it.

I agree, one of my favorites. Audrey Tautou is perfect for the part of Amelie.

i ****ing loved it

You mean horrible dubbing.

What was the sad face for Sky?

Amelie is one of my all time favourites, and one of my favourite French films, I am a big fan of Jean-Pierre Jeunet films.

I can't find City of Lost Children anywhere

It took me a while to find an R1 copy. "A Very Long Engagement" is set to street in the U.S. on 5/24. My god, that's an insanely big DVD release date.

I loved Amelie!

A very Long engagement - was a LONG MOVIE!

Amelie is a great movie

yeaaaa! I know! ... I love the gnome (sp?) statue!

hmmm.. yea the music was great in that film...

i particularly liked how the accordion was integrated into some of the tracks. ^^

uh huh

What's funny is that Expedia.com or Travelocity.com, one of the two, took the travelling yard gnome idea and used it for their commercials here in the U.S. Had snapshots of the gnome all over the world, talking about low fares, lol.

One of the best films I ever seen.
I think the soundtrack is nice too.

i love this film soo much..one of the best i've seen in a long time

it is just NICE.
i mean it as PERFECTLY POSSITIVE
it just makes world seem to be a nice place.

ya..i liked listening to the french as well

I tottally loved that film!
the colours were so bright
and it was weirdly nice

I truly enjoy this movie its one of my favorites. I cant wait till a very long engagement comes out. Audrey tatou is my favorite french actress. I cant wait to see her in the da vinci code. shes playing sophie neveu, I know she will do a great job.

I saw it but found it quite dull.

i saw and i think it's nice movie, one of the best i've ever seen!!

Should the eponymous heroine be called an "interloper"?

Amelie is an incredibly beautiful and enchanting film, it's hard not to feel good after watching it.

Also, just watched A Very Long Engagement for the second time, and it, much like Amelie, is a beautiful film, utterly beautiful and touching. Everyone who enjoyed Amelie should see it.

I gotta completely disagree. I thought the film, after seeing it for the second time, was superior to Amelie. It was a far more "real" film, it showed both horror and beauty, passion and pain, and held a beautiful message of hope.

The movie can be a little tough to follow the first time you see it, and can seem a bit messy at times. But watch it again, you'll see it's just because they wanted to put so many scenes in the film that it would have been difficult, if not impossible to do so without being a bit jarring.

It's a movie that gets better everytime you watch it.

i LOVED amelie, i thought it was beautiful, funny and heartwarming, everything about it was brilliant, the gnome idea was genius and i loved the photo thing, i almost want to look under photobooths now (yes i know lame!!), is a very long engagement any good, it got mixed reviews here and i want to know if its worth seeing it

I feel in LOVE with Audrey after seeing her in Amelie.



I HATED her in A Very Long Engagement..... SHE KEPT MAKEN ME CRY!!!

Those big brown eyes.... huge tears... Damn her talent. cry


AVLE is a very beautiful movie, i had to watch it twice tho, to love it dearly.
