Trauma (Gotham City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Me If You Dare (DVD)
When a young polish girl is tormented in the street by her classmates 8 year old Julien hands her his gift to his ailing mother....a tin trinket...young Sophie essentially dares the poor boy into being her friend which he obliges by releasing the parking brake of the school bus sending the children who tormented her careening into traffic.
The tin trinket goes back and forth with each dare through the course of their lives each one diffrent than the last some last years others seconds some are destructive others menial and embarrasing.
The tone of this movie is bitter sweet with a dark and twisted ending that is morbid but romantic in a sadistic way.
I initially thought the look of this movie was too simular to Amilie but the more engrossed you become in these two charactors the more you realise that this is a stand alone film worthy of much praise and admiration.
Once again im stricken with disbelif when I ponder the american romantic comedy genre and its all too familuar themes of love redemption and unrealistic portrayal of people in love.
There have been a scant few american love stories I can relate with in recent years High Fidelity,Punch Drunk Love and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind are the only ones that worth recalling.
Love Me if You Dare falls on my ever expanding list of must own must have romantic comedies from abroad.
Great film.

I haven't watched the film yet so I do not know the quality of the disc, it appears to be fine. I was notified that the cover was damaged but accepted it anyway. I am completely satisfied with my purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Compare to Amelie and Enjoy It For What It Is, Feb 22 2005
By mmmaggie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Love Me If You Dare (DVD)
After the success of "Amelie," the Hollywood marketing machine is in desperate search of the next big foreign romantic comedy and likewise misleads the public by packaging every movie to come out of France as the sequel to "Amelie." "Love Me if You Dare" is very much a romantic BLACK comedy, a fact that will likely turn off viewers who come in strictly with an "Amelie" mindset. Don't, and I think you'll really appreciate what THIS movie has to offer, which is a charm all its own. For those of you unsure of what to expect from a romantic black comedy, think "Secretary" but without the S&M.

I was really pleasantly surprised by this movie because I loved "Amelie" and hated "Secretary," yet I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The story of two people so obviously in love with each other yet so wrong for each other turns the romantic comedy archetype on its head. And it's not just the typical "he/she is from the wrong side of the tracks" storyline although that plays a part. There are SO many reasons why Sophie and Julien should not be together, so much so that in any other movie you would end up hating one or both characters, but you can't help but like and want them to be together. It's so cheesy to say "Oh, they're soulmates" but they are and it's not a neat, pretty package. I love how this movie explores that idea because it shows everything that goes along with love - jealously, anger, bitterness, passion, and even hatred. It's messy and it can be dark, but it's also the most exhilarating, undiminished thing in your life.

Don't be turned off by my review - it's not all dark. There are enough moments of whimsy to satisfy the most avid "Amelie"-lover out there. Some moments will make you laugh out loud. And some moments will make you blanch. But it's love in all its guts and glory. "Love Me if You Dare" adds some much needed edginess and originality to the current stream of banal and redundant romantic comedies. "Amelie" was wonderful but give this movie the chance it deserves.

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST love story I've seen in a long time., Sep 9 2004

This review is from: Love Me If You Dare (DVD)
I have only seen this movie in French while I was in France and I loved it! There are so many twists and turns in the movie that it keeps you wondering what will happen next. It also has an amazing love story involving the two main characters, who you will fall in love with. They have wonderful on-screen chemistry. The ending is one that you will argue what you think it meant with others. I love this movie and am pre-ordering it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty dark and twisted... I loved it!, Jun 27 2005
By Andrea D'Amico "Andi" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Love Me If You Dare (DVD)
This movie has a little bit of everything: romance, comedy, tragedy, and action, all rolled up into a French fantasy-like film. It was like a combination of "Moulin Rouge" and "Amelie," but much darker. Some of the dares Julien and Sophie perform are a little sick, but thrilling all the same. The acting is brilliant; the two children are so enchanting as Julien and Sophie, and the two adult actors are so captivating you can really feel how much Sophie and Julien love each other. Their love emanates so strongly that the line between reality and fanstasy is blurred to the point of non-existence, and no matter how you interpret the ending, the message is clear: some loves are meant to be immortal.
