I have watched all the films directed by Gerard Jeunet and I loved it. This one is my second favourite. I like Jeunet a lot. I think that his movies are based on real events in WW2, but if you have an interest in history, then I don't see the point of watching his movies. I prefer Se7en and Zero Dark Thirty, those are more recent movies than this one, but I think they are all good. Anyway, this is a story about an interrogation, with a strange twist: a bunch of Danish civilians, who are living in occupied France, are being questioned by the Gestapo. They are the ones who play the leading role, and they tell the truth, but are tortured by the Gestapo officers. I don't know if this is based on fact or not, but it has a very strong point. The movie is mostly about the dialogs between the two men, and how they try to get the same things out of their interrogators. I think Jeunet does an excellent job here, I think that every movie that is based on a true story should have a good script, and this one has one. It's not as good as Zero Dark Thirty, but it's really good. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): 'O Terra' ('The Planet')

After being divorced for nearly 10 years, Beverly (Juliette Lewis) begins to feel for a drug addicted ex-husband played by Dennis Quaid. Only when she tries to put the pieces together does she realize that it was all just a ruse to get her ex back. A must watch for all the bi-sexuals out there!

This is a movie that makes you ask yourself "why am I still watching this when I could be watching something more interesting" - because it is so derivative. It's predictable, it's boring and it has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. It tries to be shocking, it tries to be horrifying and it fails in almost every possible way. I have never seen a movie before that I hated so much and so much in such a short period of time. I do believe that the actors did a great job with what they had to work with, but even I can see why someone would hate this movie. A lot of the scenes are not really necessary and are completely forced and unnecessary. They don't really tell you anything about the characters except that they are bad. I honestly believe that "a violent, nihilistic, and nihilistic ending is never a good thing". And that is why I felt the need to write a review. So what did I like about this movie? The idea of a love story between two people that are very different in their personalities and their personalities are not even comparable. That may be a good thing to say, but it is a weak point in the movie. The love story is too standard and predictable. And what I think is most important - not to spoil it for you - but I felt that the music is actually the most important thing about this movie. I liked the cinematography. I like the idea of the young men and the young women playing an innocent game of making a film. I like the concept of doing a documentary and making a movie about an old man's life. I liked the photography. The film is beautiful. The first half is great. The idea of the two friends trying to find each other, which is never really explained, is very well done. The idea of doing a documentary about the first love of the two people is very interesting and the idea of making a movie about a man's life is brilliant. However, the ending is quite forced. It doesn't follow the original idea of the movie - where there is a tragedy of how people and society end up, and they have to come together to heal this damage. Instead, the ending is done in a very abrupt, unnecessary and completely unnecessary way. I think it was the most pointless and worst ending I've ever seen in a movie. I believe that there are no other movies like this and there is nothing good that can come from it. I don't believe that it was even a good movie.

The plot revolves around a young Iraqi American woman and a black Iraqi veteran who were in Iraq together and with their families. The woman is married to a black man, he is a handyman and a small time drug dealer. They are both very poor. The woman is a student, her husband is a tradesman. One of them also is a part time drug dealer. The man is also addicted to Opiate. So, when the woman is suddenly contacted by her husband who is hiding out in Iran and offers to take her back to his home. She agrees and they both go to a different town to meet her parents. That's when the problems starts. The young woman is the daughter of a wealthy Iraqi businessman who is married to a rich black woman. It's a matter of some regret that the woman who was kidnapped at the airport from Iraq is now returned to Iraq where she is taken by the husband's side. The young woman is a very good looking young woman, she is accepted by her families and she is even promised a better life in Iran. The black woman is a drug addict and she doesn't want her son back. So, the young Iraqi American woman is forced to take care of her husband's drug problem. The husband, on the other hand, falls in love with the young woman and accepts her. The two of them are also introduced to a group of poor people who are supporting the rich black woman. They help the woman to get back to her family in Iraq. Meanwhile, the young woman and her husband become lovers. The wife (Dakota Fanning) and her son (Scott), who was kidnapped by her husband, becomes a very important part of the story. They meet the husband and the young woman. This is the real scene in the film. Both the couple and their son are very unhappy and it's difficult to understand what they have become. The wife is a very difficult woman and even worse in the eyes of her son. In the end the black woman and the young woman are reunited, and the wife and son decide to become drug addicts. The film is well acted and the cinematography is beautiful. The story is very touching. This film is much better than the recent films with the same theme. I would give this film a solid 7 out of 10.

I had a good feeling about this film, but I was a little disappointed by it. Maybe it's just my opinion, but I felt that some of the scenes were just not convincing enough. I thought they were too long and too detailed, especially in the beginning. I felt the best scene would have been just after the scenes with the wives. I didn't really like the ending, too, but at least they didn't kill Anya outright, like the critics had wanted. It's the one big disappointing thing I have to say about this movie. But even if it was not a great movie, it was better than the critics said it would be. I give it a 7.

I watched Waiting For Anya, for the first time, last night. It's a very compelling film, a reminder to the nation of the horrors of the Second World War. It's also an important film for those who have a mother or a sister who served, or is currently serving, in the military. It's also a disturbing and disturbing film. In the beginning, I found myself disturbed by the very tone of the film. It seemed to be mocking the Second World War and its legacy. The film's success can be attributed to its realistic depiction of war, its realistic depiction of the horrors of war. The harsh reality that the veterans suffer is shown in a very effective way, not as a subliminal depiction, but as the focus of the film. The film also features a superb acting performance by Liev Schreiber as Forrest. A perfect portrayal of a Vietnam veteran who has experienced combat. He is a very convincing lead character and you can see that he's deeply affected by the horrors of war. He plays Forrest like a modern day John Wayne. Liev Schreiber is an excellent actor, and he pulls off the performance of Forrest perfectly. When you watch the movie, you can see that Liev Schreiber really does embody the Vietnam Veteran, and I find it really compelling. Overall, the film is very interesting and the performances are great. I highly recommend this film.

I've been searching for the time for this movie for the past months. So finally, I got to watch this amazing movie in a theater with good sound system. This is the first movie that I have watched in a theater in the last couple of years. The movie is very tense and the performances were fantastic. Anthony Hopkins, Justin Hurwitz, and the rest of the cast have performed amazing. The only character I didn't like was that of the woman. The girl's name is Anya, but she wasn't important in the story. That girl never changed, she's the same for the whole movie. Her character was the only character that didn't feel special or unique. But, I liked that. So, I'm sorry for the negative reviews, I thought it was amazing. I also felt sorry for some other reviewers that said that the movie is boring. Maybe it's the first one, but I definitely prefer to watch this movie again.

Warning: Spoilers ahead! This is a great film about a widow in a Russian prison. It's a short movie, but it is very well made. It is just like American propaganda movies made by the Red army, except the story line and characters are actually real, this film is a war film. I thought the story line was perfect, it was not a movie about the past or about what is happening now. You can see that in the way the characters react to each other and to the new soldiers in the Russian prison. The actors did a good job. No one could play a Russian or a Russian prisoner. The music was great, as the movie was quite dark and grim. The actors were all great, especially the old man and the woman. I think the acting was also good. I also liked the story and the music, because it was true to the Russian Revolution, and I think that the whole history of Russian-American relations was a great part of this film. I can't say that I really liked this movie, but I definitely think that it is a good film. I recommend it to people who are interested in watching a war film about the Russian Revolution. 7 out of 10, and that's a good score for a war film. Another war film that is comparable to this one is the movie "Prisoner of War".

One of the best movies I have ever seen. A must watch for everyone. The story is simple and the cinematography was superb. The actors did a very good job. The script was decent, but it did not contain enough material to the action scenes. The scene in which the Japanese soldier stands and refuses to shoot until the Japanese people are bombed was excellent. It showed the real hatred and horror of the Japanese people towards the Americans. It was definitely a very intense scene. The English narration was good. The American-Japanese war was a war of mutual destruction, but the Japanese people were not motivated to join the war in the first place. It was a shock for the Americans to see the same kind of hatred towards them by the Japanese people. I definitely recommend this movie to anyone who is a fan of World War II movies. This is one of the greatest movies of the year and I hope it will be watched by a lot of people in 2015.

Not at all what I expected. Absolutely beautiful but strange too. A love story between two teenagers at the beginning of WW II. Here lies the movie, with the same problem as the narrator, and a director who is trying to push a social message, with his own style. It is quite a strange mix and you just have to watch the movie to get it.

A Vietnam veteran's story about his experiences as a prisoner in Vietnam, along with an an Afghan immigrant's story about her experience, all based on real-life people who are currently serving in the U.S. military. And, they all have one thing in common: They are all expatriates. Director Shane Harrell has crafted a gripping film that shows both the human element in all wars and the negative impact of war on its victims. It's not just a war movie. It's a story of people who have experienced war. And, as the movie unfolds, we are encouraged to see the violence of war in a more positive light. It's a refreshing take on the wars we've been fighting since the beginning of the 20th century. I recommend it to anyone who has ever served in the military. I'm also a fan of Steven Spielberg and George Lucas.

I would like to say that this movie is an overrated movie. I don't know why many people are talking about this movie so much. What are you expecting from a movie like this, it was a bit slow but worth watching. Some scenes are really great, like the situation with the black woman and the blonde lady. And also the scene where the doctor is saying that the patient is dead and the wife will never get back to the same bed. That scene is really important and you should really see it. It really shows how important and much she values her family. The scene where the husband leaves the patient is also really important. And I don't know why they changed the last part of the movie. This movie is not about a killing or a revenge. There's a more story that we don't see. And it is sad that so many people who have good opinions about this movie won't see the last part of the movie. It really shows how important is family and love.

I am so glad to be able to get this movie. As a person who is trying to take her life, I knew it was not going to be easy. I was afraid that the movie would just be a collection of dialogue and "huh?" moments. Well, this movie is just as much about her as it is about him. The script is superb. The acting is wonderful. The directing and cinematography are outstanding. I was on the edge of my seat every minute of this movie. I know that many people will not be able to see it because it is so powerful. It is also very relevant to our times, as well. It is a must see for anyone who cares about the loss of a child.

This movie is truly brilliant, it will not disappoint you.The movie follows a Russian's journey into an old man's home and she meets an old man, who will change her life forever. This movie is a must watch for everyone. The acting was superb, everything was perfect, it was the best movie of all time! It's a movie that will stay with you and not leave you alone. The movie has been praised to the stars, because it is so great. This movie will definitely change your life. This movie is worth every dollar that you spend. You will never regret watching this movie. I have never watched a movie that I have been so in awe of. It is one of the best movies of all time. I would give it 10 out of 10, it is that good.

I first watched this film when I was about 5 years old. I was so impressed with it, that I watched it several times, and even bought the DVD. Since then, I have watched it a few times more. I still love it. When I read about it on IMDb, I knew it was worth checking out, so I finally did. I am not a film critic by any means, but this film really struck a nerve with me. It is a film that will touch you and stay with you. The acting is top notch. The film is not long, but it is very captivating. The director really does a great job. I feel he really wanted to capture the essence of the film, and he does a great job. The movie is intense. It is not for the faint of heart. The movie is very, very realistic. It is very hard to not fall in love with the characters. This is a true story, and the director really did a great job with it. The characters are realistic. There are no "action" scenes in this film. It is a film that is very realistic, and that is what really drew me in. I love the realism. It makes the story more real, and makes the audience feel more for the characters. This film is definitely a must watch.

I was skeptical about this movie, as I knew the reviews and it's been a very polarizing one. I have to say, this movie is definitely not for everyone. I was pleasantly surprised by the honesty of the characters and the ability to let the viewer understand them and empathize with them. The movie's portrayal of life in a war zone is definitely accurate and realistic, with the first and last shots being shown in full. I really appreciated how they used the camera, showing us the world from the people's eyes. The movie also shows how much hardship is put on people and their families, and how small you are when you are in such a difficult situation. The acting was great and you feel for all of the characters. I think the only thing that I would say about this movie is it's a good movie to watch on a cold day. However, I think it's not really a movie for all people.

A movie that tells you that the war is not over, and that sometimes, life can go on, and that if you have the courage and determination, and the love and faith, you can fight. I was very moved by this film, and will certainly be watching it again and again, as well as many others.

What I thought I'd get out of this movie was the feeling of being back in school again. I'm sure everyone has heard of this movie but never really had the opportunity to watch it. I'd love to see it again and see how the characters changed over the years and how they can relate to each other as they grow up. I don't want to spoil anything but it seemed like this movie would be all about the war, especially when the main character is actually a nurse. I know that they have a number of people who are both nurses and soldiers and their lives are intertwined so I think it would be great to see that come out in the movie. I also thought the actors were well chosen and believable in their roles. I'm surprised they didn't choose someone to play Harry in the movie because I think that would have been a great idea. I think that if this movie was like it's trailer it would have been a hit. It seemed like they were trying to tell a story and tell a story well. If you have a chance to watch this movie, please do.

I just saw the movie on the movie channel and it was a very interesting and thoughtful movie. The movie was not as strong as some people have made it out to be. It is not a story about the Holocaust, the communists, or the Warsaw ghetto. The movie focuses more on the Warsaw Ghetto and the Warsaw ghetto uprising. The movie is not to be taken seriously, and it's the opposite. I think the movie did a good job of keeping the story at a respectful level. It does not exaggerate, sensationalize, or manipulate the story to fit into a predetermined time frame. The movie is great, and I would recommend it to everyone.

This is a truly excellent film that is well worth seeing. The writing is crisp and full of surprises, and the cast does a fine job. The performances are wonderful. The cinematography is beautiful. The story is complex and challenging. The movie is also a powerful statement on the Vietnam War. In fact, I think the movie is more relevant now than it was when it was released. I have a lot of admiration for the characters in this movie, and I think the message is compelling. I was riveted by the performances in this movie and can't wait to see it again.

If you are a true fan of the genre, this movie is a must see. The movie is definitely not for the squeamish. If you are looking for a little bite of a story, it is a good bet. You will probably be asking yourself 'Did I see that before?' I hope that the next one is a bit better. But I am pretty sure the next one will be a success. But I don't think the movie will have a sequel. It's pretty much a one movie series. I don't know if there will be another. But it would be nice to see that they try to make the next one. It is a great story. The actors did a great job. They were just as I would have imagined them to be.

I love this movie. I'm a fan of Dina Serafin. Her performance was great. I loved her character, I loved the movie. I was so happy for her. She's a great actress. You can tell she's a really talented person. I'm sorry I didn't know she had so much talent. It's really sad to know that she was in this horrible way. She was in her most beautiful moments and that's the most important thing to me. She was so talented and very talented and beautiful. I hope she's okay. The movie is beautiful and I love the way it was filmed. It was very good and I liked it very much. I recommend this movie. It's a great movie.

I was intrigued by the trailers and that's why I decided to watch this film. I was disappointed, so disappointed that I did not go to the cinema to see it. I went to see it on TV. However, I was pleasantly surprised, because I saw the real story and the cast was perfect. I have to admit that I am a fan of Martin Freeman and this film was perfect. I think he was a perfect actor, in this film and in other ones. I think the film was worth watching. The acting was great, the storyline was great and I think the real story was good. I really recommend this film to everybody.

I think that the reason that this film was not a big hit at the box office was the fact that it was being shot in Ireland. Although a lot of the Irish people were in the film, it was not shown in Ireland and had to be shown in the United States. Although I think that this film has a great message that was put across very well, I think that it was shot in Ireland. The use of the Irish language was great. The story was very well put together and the acting was very good. I am glad that it was filmed in Ireland, as I believe that this film is a very important one. I think that the only people that would not like this film are those who are anti-war and would not like a film about the horrors of war. I think that this film is a great film for people who are interested in the subject of war. I think that people should see this film if they are interested in war and should also see the documentary on the subject, The Truth About Vietnam.

I saw this film at a screening of the Best Foreign Language Film at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The film opens in a bombed-out tenement in Washington, D.C. and the people inside are shouting about the war. A young, friendly man named David is wandering the streets and is approached by a man who wants to borrow some money from him. David reluctantly gives the man a few dollars, but when he returns the man gives him back the money. David thinks this is strange and asks him why he did it, but the man says he is simply trying to get David to do something for him. David knows that this man is not a friend and that the man is not a nice man. David begins to think he is being framed for something and the man's behavior towards him changes. David soon finds himself on the run from both the police and the man's fellow terrorists. This film is a haunting examination of the effects of the Vietnam War on a young man's mind and how he deals with it. The cinematography is beautiful, the acting is excellent, and the themes are disturbing and thought provoking. The film is an emotional roller coaster of a ride and a great escape from the horrors of the war and the anti-war protests that followed it. The ending is poignant and I was a bit disoriented and confused, but the film has a great message that will stick with you for a long time.
