Summary: Disappointing
Comment: i bought this film on the strength of Eternal Sunshine but am left so disappointed - took three stabs to watch it in entirety. Best parts were the closing frames (as illustrated on the DVD sleeve) and closing soundtrack. A letdown.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Mess
Comment: I loved Human Nature and Eternal Sunshine but since then it's been a rapid decline in my eyes, reaching new depths with Be Kind Rewind which was beyond awful...without a Kaufmann script Michel Gondry appears to be unable to fashion anything himself outside of music video slapstick. This is an irritatingly wacky idea that's been drawn out into a film - lame half-characters I didn't care about speaking banal dialog to each other. I went into the cinema with great enthusiasm but this was too much pop video, novel bits of papier-mache patchwork surrealism trying to paper over the cracks of an otherwise dull self-indulgent tale.

Summary: Confusing at times, but beautiful to behold.
Comment: I thought this movie was really beautiful. It was intensely creative and explored many ideas at once. The only quip i have with it is that i felt at times the line between shephane's dreams and real life was too blurred, and to that end its hard to make out a story line. As a matter of fact the whole experience of the film (id go so far as to call it an experience) was very much like a dream, in that thinking back on it now, i can only remember small details, little quirks and emotions and romances, and nothing much of what actually happened.
I recommend you buy this film if you were a fan of 'eternal sunshine' or, in fact, if you are a fan of quirky french films or surrealism.
I recommend too, that you watch it more than once.

Summary: Magnifiqué
Comment: Got to say this film is Great!!!!!!
If you haven't seen it yet, buy it!
I love how he constantly slips in-and-out of reality, and the embarassing stuff he does is very amusing! But if easily confused, watch this with somebody clever :)

Summary: Beautiful!
Comment: A friend from Europe recommended me to get this film, and I had never heard of it before, but decided to give it a watch based on the amazing preview. Straight from the start I was engrossed, and yes some of the parts are slightly bizarre, but they are also wonderful. The use of props and effects in this is immense, and visually it is a treat. It is also the storyline that makes this film so great; every character is well crafted and interesting, with the plot being fast moving yet 'real' and some of the quotes are really memorable and some parts really moving. There are also moments of comedy & the film is light-hearted with indeed a lot of heart. Everyone with whom I watched this with for the first time has watched it at least a few times since, and each time it gets better and better, and more hidden gems discovered.
Whether you are looking for a deep and meaningful film, or something just visually stimulating, then I would recommend this film. It instantly became my favourite.
