Should i see it???


I've heard negative things about this film. I want to watch it, but dont want to be disappointed, as i love Besson's works.

Is it a typical Besson film?

OK, there isn't a lot of 'action' in this film, no explosions, aliens or flying taxis, but I enjoyed it for the obvious skill of the director, it's an unusual film and I'll probably have to watch it again, as I have to use subtitles, to get the full effect of what Besson was trying to put across about human nature.

Watch it, you might be pleasantly suprised, I was.

Nice selection of films - However I do believe that the 2nd one is
A Guy Named Joe (1943) which I enjoyed as well

Thanks for asking this question. Tomorrow is the last day it is playing locally and I was wondering if I should give it a shot since I've liked most of the other Besson films. Thanks for the responses too.

You should see it and make up your own mind. I think it's a nice movie, but just know this... expect the very ending to be nothing new.

So if you won't be dissappointed by the ending so much, I think you'll rather enjoy the movie.

I picked this one up from a closing Blockbuster. I took a chance and was very happily impressed. The story is very beautiful, and the main characters are very compelling. They both show a lot of depth.
