    I saw this believe it or not on NetFlix. One of the better films i took a chance on with NF. The atmosphere of this film is GREAT! It has a look as if it was a play and some happend to film it. if that doesn't make much sense sorry im irish You will know exactly what I am saying though if and when you watch it. It is more of a Black comedy...a lot of sick fun if you ask me. Anyways I am not much for writing reviews...It has the same weird and dark feel as "The City of Lost Children" If you get some free time check it out.

    The directors are the same in fact. Jeunet will direct "Amelie Poulain" and "Alien 4" some time later.

    This is a great little black comedy. I enjoy Jean Pierre-Jeunet's films!

    Saw this on Netflix Instant (sorry I keep saying that, just letting our fellow horror peoples know its out there) and this movie was so weird in so many ways. I watched it in its entirety but it just didn't do it for me.

    This movie is a classic for me, a unrepeatable film. I imagine this film as a kind of recipe:
    A bit of science fiction, a little black comedy, a spoonful of romance, creativity to taste, a simple argument, a pair of rare characters' heads, a little post-apocalyptic environment, and the result is this film.

    Have this in my personal collection and it's a pretty cool little French Flick. Jean Pierre Jeunet does brilliant work. Funny how I often see this displayed in the "Horror" section in several stores I go to when in reality it is a dark comedy. I'd recommend it for those who haven't seen it. You have quite a collection of oddball characters in this film!

    My favourite film from Jeunet & Caro. A great mix of sentimentality, love, the macabre, and humour, all fused together to make such a unique and endearing film.
