DVD Reviews of He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not
DVD Review: Avoid knowing anything at all about this superb film before you see it...
Summary: 5 Stars
An extremely clever, ingeniously structured and, after a deceptively slow start, absolutely gripping film, "He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not" is a superb example of modern French cinema at its very best.
Describing it is impossible without giving anything away, which is a serious problem for any reviewer as a key element in its power & effectiveness is that you should see it without any knowledge at all of what happens. Suffice to say that Audrey Tautou is perfectly cast to make it so effective, that it has the "charm" & "style" that makes French films so good when they get it right, and that, by the end of it all, you'll want to hit the replay button.
Buy it or rent it, put up with the problems that subtitles cause, and then enjoy it for what it is: a superbly crafted... what? Well telling you "what" will destroy much of the enjoyment of the film and you really should avoid the temptation to find out any more than this before seeing it yourself... you won't be disappointed.
DVD Review: Very clever movie
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best movies I've ever seen. I'd describe it as a thriller/chick flick. I love how it ends -- it's perfect!DVD Review: Excellent customer service!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm very happy with my purchase. I had no problems with any aspect of this purchase. Great customer service! Thank you!DVD Review: More Misogyny As "Entertainment"
Summary: 1 Stars
Perpetuates the misogynistic myth of the crazed female stalker, which is highly inaccurate (every federal or state law enforcement agency lists statistics that show that 90% of stalkers are men, yet in the movies they are always women).
This is the second film I've watched with Tautou in it, and I'm sad to see her wasted in such a horrible film.
If you want to watch a film that perpetuates the idea of "crazy psycho women" then have fun and watch this.
(In truth, I'm sure there's a good reason why some women do lose it in the end, as your female friends and sisters can probably tell you from their real-life experiences in dating and "relationships.")
DVD Review: Aubrey Hepburn Cast In Fatal Attraction
Summary: 4 Stars
**Spoiler Alert**
Let start out by saying that this movie struck me the wrong way because I was expecting a comedy. He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, is clever and well done, but it is definitely not funny.
Audrey Tatou plays Angelique-an art student carrying on a passionate affair with a married cardiologist, Loric, played by Samuel Le Bihan. Or so the viewer is led to believe. For the first half hour of the film we see Angelique buying her lover roses, meeting her lover in the bathroom for an illicit rendevous, and walking with him through the gardens of Bourdeaux. Audrey Tatou plays Angelique in her cute elfin cum ingenue way-laughing and joking with her friends about her affair. I thought this was a romatic comedy in the style of Priceless.
And then things rewind and we witness the scenes from Loric's point of view. To make a long story short, Angelique is a complete nutcase and the whole affair is entirely in Angelique's head. Angelique is following Loric to the bathroom so that it looks like they are having a rendevous. She is planning romantic trips to Florence and he ... doesn't even know her. It gets very dark when we find that Angelique has run over Loric's wife with her moped and killed their baby.
The plot of He Love Me... caught me off guard. It's not that it was bad, but there was something disturbing about Audrey Tatou's perky personality against the backdrop of this disturbing film. Imagine casting Aubrey Hepburn in Fatal Attraction (Special Collector's Edition) and having her act like she's still in Breakfast At Tiffany's - Paramount Centennial Collection. In the end the disconnect between the personality and the plot adds to the idea that the whole thing is in Angelique's head because she is not reacting with the reality around her. But it throws the viewer for a loop.
A good thriller and a thousand times better than the trite and contrived Fatal Attraction. Just don't be fooled by Audrey's cute little smile on the cover!
Description of He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not
When we first meet rising young artist Angelique (Tautou), she is in the glorious throes of true love, and the whole world has seemingly fallen under her spell. Her handsome lover Loic is madly in love with her, her paintings are winning wide acclaim, and a glorious future seems all but assured. But Angelique's blissful world may not be as enchanting as it first seems, and in a quick startling moment, her life - and our understanding of it -seems to unravel in front of our eyes. Starring Audrey Tautou (Amelie), Samuel Le Bihan (Three Colors: Red).That adorable Audrey Tautou from Am?lie plays the central role in this deceptive story of a rather unusual romance. It would spoil the film's clever design to reveal what happens halfway through He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, so let's just say that Tautou plays a winsome girl in the sunny town of Bordeaux, whose relationship with a married doctor has more layers than first it seems. Samuel LeBihan, from Brotherhood of the Wolf, plays the doctor, but it's the casting of cutie-pie Tautou that sets up the movie's gradually sinister undertow. Director Laetitia Colombani's inventive structure plays a satisfyingly tricky game with the audience, and may have some viewers going back to the beginning to make sure they saw what they thought they saw. Just don't go in expecting Am?lie part deux, and you should find this an ingenious little number. --Robert Horton
