Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

mensch-2 He's a recently widowed farmer. She's a Romanian immigrant. He 'chooses' her. She must adapt to life on an English farm. While this film has some amusing moments, along with truthful moments among the sub-Hollywood sentimentalism, overall it is a manipulative and shallow film. It could thus be written off as contrived piffle, but unfortunately it uses a very important subject – the plight of Eastern European immigrants and so-called 'mail-order' brides – to satisfy its high concept. Even within its own arrogant and sexist – why would a beautiful young woman fall for an unattractive farmer? – framework if fails to explore fully the ramifications of its setup. An amiable time-filler at best, but don't think about it too hard.

bido77 I hadn't expect to like this movie. It deals with things from my country I desperately wanted to escape from - lack of money, desperation, the small price a woman can ask for herself. And I hadn't really liked a Romanian movie eversince I was a child and I was watching silly communist movies. But this movie had good credentials and people close to me had enjoyed it, so when I had the chance I watched it, first with prejudiced disgust, then with interest and at the end with emotion. It is a lovely movie, about not so lovely people that in the end turn out to be just fabulous. It is the first movie about ugly Romania that I actually enjoyed watching. I am grateful for that.

Martin Dierks We saw the movie in a sneak preview and therefore had no idea what to expect. Looked like a romantic comedy - we should have left but we didn't. This flick has romantic parts, shows the not so normal life in a small french village, introduces several characters quite friendly and therefore pulls you into it. On the other hand, it really tries to be sweet but does it with an overdose - it is simply too much and far too simple. No twist, no surprise - far too boring to be interesting. Nice little moments with some french humor, though, especially from the main male character. But do they always need a dog, a child and flowers to show harmony? Yes, we understood it long before. It does not always take that much.

photos-sa Loved the movie! I chose to see this French movie, though I knew nothing about it and wished for a light romantic comedy. I received much more. Not a "funny" comedy but a "chamber" movie with two chamber players, gentle, touching and heart-warming. I loved every character's portrayal, including Ciufu the dog. Coming out of the cinema, I saw smiling faces and overheard men commenting, in surprise, that they did enjoy the movie. The matching of an older -not exactly handsome- man with a younger, vivacious woman, reminded me of two other movies (that quite differ):1. "Alexandre Le bienheureux",1967,(Philippe Noiret v.Marlene Jobert)- (Hilarious!)2. "As good as it gets" (Jack Nicholson v. Helen Hunt)- (saw it twice and still find the chemistry unconvincing). I shall definitely add this movie to my DVD collection.
