after 30min: what the heck i am watching here ?
after 60min: ok, i got the story. So what now ?
after 90min: what?! Are you serious. That makes no sense. What a s****y movie.
after 120min: wow! just, wow!
after 147min: what a totally great movie. Typical Lynch, but it make much MUCH more sense than "Lost Highway".

Totally liked it. Rating: 8/10

It's not often a film leaves me speechless, but I'm honestly not sure how to even go about rating this. I have no idea if I even enjoyed it or not. I need at least a few days.

Bullshit
An awkward film, and a waste of time

Wtf did I just watch?

Too confusing to enjoy IMO

Watched on a plane with an awareness that it’s a classic and then I saw Lynch’s name on it so I had some preconceived ideas.

An aeroplane doesn’t really create the right environment for Lynch’s eerie style so it wasn’t until I read an explanation that I realised what was going on, which changed my appreciation.

The vibe, which is a combination the visuals, the music and the individual performances, is a familiar Lynch feeling and the movie is definitely worth a watch as it definitely elicits an emotional response.

You could approach this as a dream set into two parts. We see a happy-go-lucky set of characters in the first act and on the flip-side, a spiralling descent of madness in the second act. There are lots of levels from which you could read this film, as you would look at a piece of art.
Mulholland Drive left me with pondering it’s strong feminist messages. It clearly wants to address the problems of the silver screen days, where famous actresses were known to be abused and treated unfairly in Hollywood. This is worth watching armed with a pen and notepad to keep up with your own thoughts. There’s too much to take in at first.

My Review of ‘Mulholland Drive’ in Three Sentences:

1. I tend to appreciate Lynch’s films more AFTER I watch them.

2. I prefer to enjoy 2+ hour films WHILE I watch them.

3. Fascinating take on dreams/fantasies aside, I doubt I’ll ever sit through this one again.

Poorly edited and frustrating movie. Don't fall for David Lynch meme, waste of 2 hours. I hate when someone leaves so many characters and subplots to the interpretation that there clearly isn't one answer as to why they were there or why 'this' or 'that' happened. Why does he have to make everything abstract and weird? 5/10 at best since there are some great scenes.

"Mulholland Drive" is by far the most complete expression of David Lynch's cinema. It has everything that made his films memorable but still manages to be accessible for most viewers (you will need to rewatch a couple of times, but at least we are far from the apparent close-to-nonsense of "Inland Empire"). A lot of people claim that the last 45 minutes prevented the film from becoming a real masterpiece and made it confusing for the sake of it, but it's quite the opposite. Surely the unsettling and surreal atmosphere that permeates the film is valuable, but those last 45 minutes are the ones that give a real weight and meaning to so many details and lines. They are essential to save the first half from being just a cheesy mystery movie with a unique atmosphere.
It has been one of my favorite movies for ages, but it took me over fifteen years to finally relate to the character. I guess I am finally old enough to feel the bitter taste of failure and self-delusion.

Sooooooooo freaking cool. Makes me jealous of Lynch's genius mind, wish I had one like that.

This was my first Lynch movie. I was too young to get it back then. Now that I'm older, and I've seen more than traditional Hollywood movies, I see why this is considered as a masterpiece.
Boring? Confusing? Poorly edited? This definitely isn't for squares who like to be spoon fed with answers.

It's one of that movies you need to watch it without any distractions like phone , etc. Or watch it two times.
