Movie Reviews of Delicatessen

Movie Review: My favourite Jean-Pierre Jeunet movie
Summary: 5 Stars

I remember the first time I saw this movie, at a theatrical release in a small cinema in Perth, Australia. I went it with no idea what it was about and absolutely loved it. I think it is one of more perfect movies made. It is a wonderful combination of humour, surrealism weird plot lines and fantastic scenes. I have seen of all Jean-Pierre Jeunnet's movies ever since.

I absolutely recomond this movie and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have. I have been waiting for this movie to finally come out on DVD, it has been a long long time.

Movie Review: Delicatessen
Summary: 5 Stars

One of the most inventive comedies to come along in the last 20 years, Jeunet and Caro's black-comic satire isn't just weird and wildly imaginative, it's also a tender love story, with Dougnac and Pinon making excellent, oddly heroic romantics. Championed by Monty Python animator Terry Gilliam, "Delicatessen" has a distinctive look that's half nightmare, half comic book, but it sticks in the mind for its hilariously wicked sense of humor (wait for the bed-squeaking love-making scene) and bizarre plot. "Delicatessen" serves up quite a unique flavor.

Movie Review: Finally!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm glad to see that this movie is being released in region 1. Maybe more people will discover it now. I first discovered it after viewing the same directors "City Of Lost Children". I liked it so much that I researched their other works, and finally caught a screening of "Delicatessen" on tv after finding out it wasn't on dvd (reg. 1).
Can't wait! And check out "City Of Lost Children". It's a keeper!

Movie Review: Beautiful. Funny. What more do you want?
Summary: 5 Stars

Oh, the imagination! Oh, the cinematic beauty! It's weird, and a bit claustrophobic, but that's all part of the aesthetic. C'mon, rent it. Especially if you like Amelie.
This movie (by the director of Amelie and Alien) is beautifully imaginative. It makes you feel like a kid again. Features a subterranean vegetarian society and a washed-up clown. mmm.

Movie Review: Availability
Summary: 5 Stars

You know, the French language version was also available on DVD at least 2 years ago.
I've been keeping a close eye on this release for years, and found the french one available on some french Amazon equivalent store.
I too can't believe it's taken so long.
The true classics do tend to sufer exposure I suppose.
