Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

shopping_girl88 Hello! I'm analyzing Me without you and have a couple of questions. Were do you think in the film the conflict between Holly and Marina escalates? I have said when the conflict gets its solution is when Holly threat Marian to leave her and she tells her how see have felt during all these years. What do you think about that? And one more question... What do you think the director want to say with this film? Describe a friendship? That's what I should have said. But maybe he's just want to show how young people acts? I believe there's a deeper thought behind this film, but what do you think? Ihope you can help me! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me!

bpjanice I've always been a huge fan of British films and 'Me Without You' certainly didn't let me down. It doesn't only show vividly the agonies and struggles of growing up from a girl to a woman, it also presents the joys in a way that all can identify with. I believe most can empathize with Marina, when she tore up the letter Nat wrote to Holly, or when she tries her very best just so that she can have Holly all to herself. Friel forces us to come face to face with the Marina in ourselves. Williams deserves more credit for her stunning performance in the film. Undoubtedly, her quiet and reserved way of playing Holly has found itself into the hearts of many, especially with her desperate yearning for Nat.To term this epic a 'chick flick' is certainly doing it and its actors great injustice. I walked away after watching it for the third time saying, 'God, I love this movie.' Kudos to the writer and director!

susan-191 A real look at women with depth and foibles sustaining a friendship- Why is this so rarely done? The details are succinct and amazing. This is what real people look like and act like- when they're tired, confused, angry, jealous etc., etc. No glossing. By showing the 'bones' of the characters' neuroses the evolution of the people themselves and their friendship becomes complex and satisfying. And,hey, the period details are fabulous- I was right back there with them wearing tarty, tatty club clothes and listening to Adam Ant with fake pirates. Loved this movie.

silent_bob_for_prime_minister everyone should see this film, it's far better than many of the big budget action movies which we so frequently see at the cinema. Like many of the films i love (the godfather, almost famous) it spans over more than one decade and perfectly depicts the ups and downs of friend ships. it is perfectly cast, michelle williams shines as the less out going of the two friends as does anna friel as her best friend. there is no particular storyline, different issues arise during each of the featured years and the ending is amazing-i really cant fault this film in anyway, and best of all IT'S A BRITFLICK!
