Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

ronaldwvaughan Saw this movie at the NuArt (West L.A.) theater in California some time ago.Just want to add how much I myself enjoyed the work of this artist.Though KATE BUSH supposedly downplays her own creation as "not her best work" this film,nonetheless,DOES have substantial merit."The Line,The Cross,and the Curve" delves into the archetypical and down into the roots of human life itself.Something like an ordinary Everyman (or,in this case,an Everywoman) drawn into extraordinary situations. That's the kind of storytelling genius that the late Alfred Hitchcock used to use.From being plucked from her musician life into a nightmarish purgatory and then being rescued by the forces of nature and good.....this is part of the adventure. My favorite part of the film is when Kate's character is chasing the evil witch-character....a chase through all Eternity but Good triumphs over Evil. And Evil is put back in its place where it belongs.Really a shame,that this film was not released theatrically in more places. Because, it needs to be seen on the big screen for full effect.

motbofres If you are truly a fan, you will love it... It is of course quite mad, but utterly wonderful at the same time. It provides wonderful images to the music that, if you are watching this, the chances are you have heard over and over and over. The whole thing is a complete contradiction. It looks cheap and expensive, it is fantastic and yet grounded in a set somewhere in London. Most of all, it is flawed but completely flawless. Perhaps you need to talk yourself round to the idea that its brilliant, but its worth it if you do. Kate Bush the actress is as unconventional as the singer...naysayers will just say shes no good, but the Fan will see the passion instead of the (lack of) polish. The whole thing has a peculiarly British feel of enthusiasm-in-spite-of-budgetary-restrictions about it which fans should and will get carried away with. But it is also infused with magic and fantasy, in a way that more than compensates...it is not like other films; it doesn't look like other films, it doesn't have a plot like other films so it is pointless getting hung up on the fact that it doesn't. Just run with it. This, it has to be said, is a pretty awful review, but then I hope that the rambling, wafflish nature will make it clear just how Kate Bush can reduce her fans to an awe-struck stupor and that one of the key pleasures of this film, however superficial a pleasure it may be, is the smug satisfaction that non-fans just won't get it...

DMac Some of the photography and such are very good in this, but Kate's lack of acting ability is apparent and startling in this -- much more so than was evident in her earlier videos.

Scott-4 This film actually consists of music videos for the songs from Kate Bush's album "The Red Shoes" joined together with common characters and a plot. There is a lot of imagery and symbolism. Many of the images seem to be inspired by "The Wizard of Oz".There are a couple of serious flaws here. Kate Bush does not appear to be comfortable in the role, and her acting is quite poor. Since she has been directing and acting in music videos since the 70's, it is disappointing that this is not her best work.Miranda Richardson and Lindsay Kemp are wonderful and help the film along a great deal. The quality of costumes and special effects varies from excellent to horrible. In one scene, Kate's legs are possessed by the dancing red shoes and are actually a different person's legs. It looks fake, and it is puzzling if this is intended to be humor or simply poor quality.The bottom line is that this film will appeal to Kate Bush fans because they (we) are very devoted. Fans are also aware of the deaths that occurred in her personal life that are symbolized in the film. But "The Line, the Cross, and the Curve" will never achieve the status of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" or anything like that.
