Surprisingly funny!
A friend of mine ended up renting it and I figured it would be a really stupid film so I almost didn't watch it. Saw the cover and it was distributed by Fox Searchlight so figured I'd give it a try.
This is one of THE funniest movies ever. I laughed my ass off. Its stupid, crude yet increadibly funny but most of all it has heart. I've seen it like three times already.
The fact that its a part of my "Movies worth owning" hotlist should say it all. Thats one of the highest compliments I can give a film. Well worth your time. ... -

Charming
It truely is a charming film. It has a very unique style and is quite different from the stuff you normally see. I liked the concept of having each persons point of view on the situation.
This film definitely is a crowd pleaser. I think it would make a pretty good "date movie" as well. Well worth your time. ... -

Hillarious
Maybe I'm a little easily amused by all things dark and messed-up but I thought this one one of the funniest movies I've seen in a while.
I doubt most people will like this film cause its a little too twisted for most peoples taste. But if you're into dark comedies (Happiness, Welcome to the Dollhouse, Election, Pulp Fiction, Nurse Betty, to name a few) I highly recommend this one. Its a really good film. Well worth your time. ... -

British Indie
Takes a look at the life of a 30 something year old introverted virgin who has lead a rather sheltered life and how he finally breaks out of his 'bubble' and finally "Gets it right".
I liked this film. Don't think most video stores carry this one but if you find it its worth a look. ... -

Lovely and Amazing
0 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpful The title says it all. One of the best films I've seen recently. Its a touching film with some very funny moments but most of all its about the way this family relates to each other. O and Emily Mortimer is increadibly sexy.
Encourage independent film makers. NewLine and Fox can do without your monetary support. Go watch this film. Its well worth your time. ... -

A nice movie
The thing I liked the most about it was it felt sincere. Quite funny and very touching as well. Good film overall. Worth your time.

CABIRIA!
0 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpful This is probably my favourite Fellini movie. Its a lot more conventional than say Eight and a half and has a very personal feel to it. The actress in it has acted brillantly. You really feel sorry for her towards the end and happy for her when things are going well. Well worth your time. ...
