Movie Reviews of Broken Flowers
Movie Review: Not your typical comedy
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a fan of Jim Jarmusch's simplistic, real life shooting style. And that's what this is. If I be so bold as to call it "real life comedy". There's no over the top scenarios in the Hollywood sense. The story is a little bleak, yet for some reason it appeals to me. Think "Lost in Translation". Bill Murray is a master at being depressed yet still making you smile. This movie is also accompanied by a great soundtrack.
No, this movie isn't hilarious but it's a great movie with many different emotions and left open to many different interpretations. It's worth watching.
Movie Review: Jim Jarmusch - At his Best !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Jim Jarmusch has made many wonderful films during his career. Since the very beginning he has established a new style and point of view. There aren't many filmmakers and storytellers that really deliver such creative work as he does. Broken Flowers is a wonderful film, full of magic, full of surprises, full of Jarmusch, and full of Bill Murray. It's a pleasure, from the very beginning to the very end, and even more, it leaves a wonderful aftertaste. It's a film that does not fade away, like most. It gets stronger and stronger in time. A must.

Movie Review: Jim Jarmusch directs another great film
Summary: 5 Stars
Jim Jarmusch is one of the last truly independant filmmakers around. Completely original and beautifully acted. Bill Murray's performance rivals that of Lost in Translation, but still doesn't overtake it. This film is one of the more underrated films of the year along with Gore Verbinski's The Weatherman and Harold Ramis' The Ice Harvest. This film is quirky, funny, and depressing all at the same time. All of Don's former lovers all are acted wonderfully, especially by Sharon Stone. This is a very mellow but sweet comedy. One of Jarmusch's best.Movie Review: One of the best of 2005!
Summary: 5 Stars
Bill Murray gives another stunning performance in this film, as does the rest of the wonderful cast. Jim Jarmusch is such a talented director. His originality never ceases to amaze me, and this film is wonderful! Everything about it is great! It's the "Lost in Translation" of 2005, and you don't want to miss it! Some people may be put off by the ending. It's not a conventional ending. This film doesn't adhere to a typical Hollywood formula, so no, nothing is spoon-fed to the audience. We need more films like these!
RENT IT. NOW!
Movie Review: Thumbs up
Summary: 5 Stars
Funny how different people react to different films. For my part, I watched it, was completely entranced with it from start to finish, and thought it ended all too soon when it did. (Loved & bought 'Lost in Translation' as well.)
But not to worry for those that didn't find much to like in this - As I'm quite sure Hollywood will continue to spit out some more 'Armegeddons'.
PS: Found the KID'S review crying over the 'plot' hilarious!
