Bueller??

I think at least two folks on my flist have seen this movie -- please link me because I went back a long way and could not find your reviews.

For the record I thought it was incredibly gripping, and I WOULD recommend it.  However, you need to like films that are not made in America.  You have to realize that this film is based on a FRENCH GRAPHIC NOVEL.  So if you like, for example, CITY OF LOST CHILDREN, then you are prepared for this film. It is NOT trying to be the next Transformers.

Chris did an awesome job btw.

I'm going to try to write a review tomorrow, or perhaps two reviews. because I went in spoiler free, and I think that is a good way to see it. :)

It is a hardhitting moview about class struggle, limited resources, our destiny as a species, etc. So be prepared!

I saw previews and it hit all of my sensitive areas (the woman bellowing, "Keep to your rightful place" and all that)... It made my inner Silverheart pull out her Nebula Pistol, let's say ;-)

I haven't seen La Citée des Enfants Perdus yet, but I did see their other film, Delicatessen ;-)
