Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

empbb That was a wonderful, must see movie! It was very refreshing to see a movie not about special effects and explosions but about the depth of human feeling and creativity. The acting was outstanding, spot on! I could really feel all the characters and their personality. The story is full of beauty, sadness, wonder, amazement and love. A very touching movie.

lanckenj Most of the sentiments I feel about this film are already written in the many reviews here, so will not repeat. A great film, great cinematography and superb acting. In my you must watch this list.

susan-lin-470-899061 People do not need that much to be happy, and if you know how to love, you will be loved too. Life can be hard, life can be unfair, life can be unfortunate, maybe we all wanted too much, that is we are so hard to be satisfied. A tiny house, four walls, poorly made furniture, simple food, one bed, candle lights.... even after Maud starting selling her works and made money, they did not expanded the house or got a better car(in the film), because they were satisfied with each other and their little house. We don't need that much to be happy. Just like our fathers and mothers always say, they were much happier than us at our age. They had no internet, TVs, airplanes.... but they had much more real fun back then. It all make perfect sense now, we wanted too much and this desire grows bigger and the list of things we want is getting longer and longer, but it does not bring us the simple happiness, the fulfillment of living a life. This is a uplifting movie that make you think if Maud can make it and achieved happiness in her life, what is the reason for you to not have it?! Be a kind, humble, loving and grateful person, maybe you will find out that love is just within you and you are won't feel lonely anymore.

If it wasn't for Sally Hawkins i don't think that i would have liked this film i mean her acting is brilliant from the way she moves, the way she talks and above all her facial expressions and the fact that she portrays such an interesting figure. Although i must admit i hated Ethan Hawke's character and the fact that he treated Nova like garbage and he was leaving her walk all those miles on her own but this is still an amazing film regardless it's flaws. (8/10)
