There are some amazing revelations in the movie, which will leave you shocked.
A truly wonderful movie, well acted, directed and filmed.
It is important to watch the first installment (JdF), before viewing this movie.
Movie Review: Great movie, pretty good DVD
Summary: 4 Stars
I have loved this movie for a long time. I was hesitant to buy the DVD because of comments I had seen about the low quality of the transfer, but was pleasantly surprised ... it looks very good to me, I'd say better than half of the DVDs I own. It's just too bad there aren't some extras along with it. But the movie by itself is enough, really: poignant, humorous, twisted, and totally engrossing no matter how many times I watch it.Movie Review: Interesting
Summary: 4 Stars
This is the second film in a set,following Jean de Florette. I actually prefered this to the first film. However, not being a native french speaker, I found one or two of the characters quite difficult to understand. Over all a thoroughly enjoyable film. Not especially deep or important but rather fun.Movie Review: Wonderful
Summary: 4 Stars
We had to watch this in French class and I thought it would be a really boring movie, but it wasn't. This is a wonderful movie for students studying french and anyone who likes the language. Jean de Florette is the movie before this one and it is also awesome.Movie Review: great finish
Summary: 4 Stars
Well done, a bit of a fairy tale ending whereby all the loose ends seem to be tied up, not as poetic as the first part, "Jean de Florette", but the surprises and the lessons about what makes life really worthwhile are still very powerful!
