Surreal, disquieting and funny, by turns. This film is a strange and wonderful thing, with it's cast of grotesque characters and amazing visual style. I'm not promising you'll like it, but you should definitely see it.

**A visual spectacle with an irritating story that doesn't justify the time spent watching the film.**

I loved – like almost everyone else – “Amelie” and I didn't particularly like “Delicatessen”. However, I didn't give up on Jean Pierre Jeunet and decided to see this film. I confess More

I'm not sure if I had drank something, popped a pill, or was inhaling carbon monoxide. All I know is that while I was watching this movie, I was literally about to fall asleep. I am not making this up for a joke. I seriously could barely keep my eyes open. That's how bored out of my mind I w More
