"An urge to help mankind comes over her."
This delightful French confection, directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and co-written by Jeunet and Guillaume Laurant, is the story of Amélie Poulain, the product of a hilariously dysfunctional marriage. Her father is an obsessive-compulsive doctor and her mother is a nervous and twitchy...

2 stars out of 4
The Bottom Line:An overrated and inexplicably-beloved film that tries to hide the fact that it's a fundamentally ordinary movie (odd but lovable couple kept apart by contrivances until the final scene) behind layers of sugary schmaltz, watching Amelie is the cinematic equivalent of eating cotton...

Perfect
Its a shame that some people are too immature to embrace such a wonderful film because of stuck-up and prudish judgements. There are scenes in Amelie showing, for example, the results of her wondering how many couples are having an orgasm in Paris right then.. or showing the interior of the sex...

A WISTFUL, WONDERFUL, PIECE OF MAGIC
Jeunet presents a fairytale set in a fanciful version of Paris with a captivating, painfully shy, heroine ( Audrey Tautou ) who, after seeing coverage of Princess Diana's death, takes it upon herself to help others, usually with funny, and heartwarming guile, that is almost as bewitching as her...

Best movie Audrey Tautou has done
The point of view for this movie, the narration and Audrey's superb acting make this one movie you simply have to have in your collection. If you don't know about Audrey, this one is the best introduction you could find. And the story line is creative, sweet, ironic and iconic. Very much worth...

Absolutely Charming !!!
This is an instant classic. Directed with a retro and modern feelers entwined throughout every scene, Amelie pulls you in and again further still. This movie seems like a children's tale and would make a great film for such with proper edits. It finishes with a nice moral rub for shy or difficult...

2nd time viewing..
I watched Amelie on DVD several years ago for fun, and really enjoyed it. Then a few weeks ago I finally ordered my own DVD and watched it again. It's great to watch even a second time thru, probably because it's hard to catch everything the first time. And that's because many of the good parts...

Exquisite!
I borrowed this movie from a friend, not knowing what to expect. After popping it in and having no expectations I was literally jumping out of my seat to watch it again. It's a beautiful story of a girl who wants to make things right and find happiness in the process. The movie is well made and...

Alert. If you're looking for wholesome, this is not really it.
In my humble opinion this would have been a precious movie except for a few things, like...the frontal nudity and shots of people making out. Then there is the idea that people can live happily ever after if they fall into bed after barely knowing one another. Stuff like that. Doesn't work for...
