When I first saw this movie, I only saw the last 25 minutes. I thought it was hilarious and a typical Hollywood piece of crap.... until I watched it later on from the beginning.

I won't spoil the ending for you, but if I told you what happens in the end you too would probably think this movie was horrible and ridiculous. "Camille" is quite far-fetched and strays from the normal love story, except for it's another movie where a female character believes she can change her man. What surprised me about this movie is how deep of a character Camille really is. Her emotions and free spirit kept me interested. I always considered Sienna Miller to be overrated, until the movie "Camille" came along. She is from England yet her southern drawl is quite convincing. Her character is well-written. She's is the stereotypical foolish southern girl who is foolishly in love with a petty thief who is just interested in escaping to Canada to get away from the authorities. While I didn't find James Franco to be very convincing (not that I ever have), he did do an adequate job of playing the inconsiderate bad-boy. Sienna Miller, however, draws you into the story. You can feel her heart break when she finally realizes that Silas truly doesn't love her. For the rest of the movie you can't help but feel terrible for this innocent woman who only seems to be full of love. The supporting cast is also complete. David Carradine (Cowboy Bob) and Scott Glenn (another underrated actor) compliment Sienna Miller and the story perfectly. There is some great cohesiveness going on between the actors in this feature. I would definitely recommend this movie for people who can suspend disbelief for the corny parts of the movie but who love heart-wrenching films. It's a true gem for romance-seekers out there!

As most people I am tired of the by the numbers clichéd movies that Hollywood makes. There seems to be no creativity in Hollywood. Companies only want to spend money on remakes are sequels that have an audience built in.

This movie is a welcome change. It could be classified as romantic comedy for it's genre but don't let that turn you off this movie. This is a very original movie which is not like most things Hollywood produces.

If you are reading this, you already know the basic plot so I will not bother going over that. The only movies that come to mind to compare this to are "Interstate 60" and "Art of Travel" which are little known gems that take a different path than most of the Hollywood garbage.

This is well worth seeing if you are tired of watching more of the same.

An unusual movie, which starts off with the classic premise of a hooligan who marries a girl who loves him in order to escape the country. But a twist soon turns the tale upside down. Most of the film hits the right buttons: the story develops smoothly, acting is solid (Sienna Miller's drawl is priceless, she really can act!), chemistry between both leads works, and rolling American rural scapes and quirky side characters really make for a good time. The mood, which starts off as light and romantic soon moves into something darker and downright eery at times.

At times though the pace slows just a tad more than we would like, but don't let this stop you watching this unusual little cinematic treat. Alexandre Montin, Paris

If you like realist fantasies such as Groundhog Day, or Stranger than Fiction, Camille is the movie for you. It qualifies as a good movie, although barely. It feels like more could have been done with the story, but it is definitely safe to say that Camille is original, and charming. For some people that may be enough.

This is the story of the most contrived and surreal honeymoon trip to Niagra Falls. A young thief, Silias, is on parole so he can marry Camille, the sheriff's niece. He doesn't love her, and she is kind of self centred, but if he doesn't go ahead with this, he goes back in the hole. They depart for the falls in a lousy little bike and side car, and they barely get a mile before they have an accident, which becomes a chain reaction for a weird and wonderful remainder of the journey, and perhaps a chance for Silias feelings to grow.

There are two things that Camille would've needed to be on par with the great realist fantasies (such as Groundhog Day). It feels a bit shallow for one thing, and its beauty is only skin deep. For another, it is obvious that the story doesn't take itself seriously and some bits are played for laughs, but not enough to make it work as a comedy. It could have been a tad funnier.

Sienna Miller's career is still young, but each time I see her, I realize that she is capable of variety. She has been to the Venitian Baroque era (Casanova), To Edwardian England (The Edge of Love), A killer super villain in black leather (G.I. Joe) although she wasn't all that great there. Here she plays a really big narcissist but one with a cute touch. She totally upstages James Franco, who has never really done much for me.

I don't think Camille will disappoint. It could use a few touches here and there, but it is likable.

Camille stars Sienna Miller(Camille) and James Franco(Silas) as a pair of lovers who just go married. Camille is joyful and enthusiastic while Silas is a moody ex-fellon who's not sure of his feelings for Camille. They go on a trip for their honeymoon, but soon after they leave, Camille realizes she might be having illusions when it comes to Silas. When the motorcycle-riding couple has an accident, Silas begins to notice some strange things about his blushing bride as her hair falls out and grows pale soon concluding that she's death.But he promises her, no matter what, he'll get Camille to their destination, Niagara Falls... Camille is a sweet and romantic little film, with a somewhat original plot. It's almost a fantasy tale because what happens is unreasonable and there's no explanation given to why things are happening the way they are but it's still quite enjoyable. Both actors did a fine job and the beautiful Miller, who's British, really pulled off her character's southern accent. As a character, Camille might be annoying at times but that has nothing to do with the actress playing her but, with the way the character was written. I guess it comes down to a question of mood and disposition, if you want to watch a serious, realistic and well thought film this is not for you, if you want to see a decent and harmless romantic story then you can watch Camille.

6.5/10

I recently saw this movie at a screening and honestly, Bizarre is the only word that can completely describe this story. The acting was great and there was really nothing the actors could do about the storyline. I think whoever wrote this was on another planet. The actors did an excellent job with their characters, but I think this movie kind of brings down (especially James Franco) their creditability. I wonder if they signed for the money, cuz honestly I don't see anyone after reading the script say "This is an amazing story that I must be a part of".

I guarantee you, when the credits roll you will look at your movie buddy and say "HUH?!".

The less you know about the plot, the better. The best way to enjoy this movie is to just expect a fairytale. Be ready for a crazy, surreal, comedic & romantic story, and don't try to rationalize any of the wacky things that happen.

I picked up this DVD for $2 at my local Blockbuster, and if you hurry down to yours there may be a few left in the bargain bin. You'll get your money's worth and then some! Packaged as a romantic comedy about a good girl & a bad boy, the description hardly begins to scratch the surface. But I have to commend the DVD distributors for not giving away the story. The fun is when it hits you and you realize what an original, cute & slightly creepy story this is. And the humour follows brilliantly. I advise you not to even watch the trailer (which gives away the story somewhat).

Still, you're probably wondering what the heck this movie is about. I won't say, but you can probably compare it to such surreal modern fantasies as "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", "Stranger than Fiction", "Being John Malkovich" and an obscure gem called "Grand Theft Parsons". All these excellent films share the common approach of dealing with heavy, soul-searching themes in light-hearted ways. They make you think about your life & your philosophy of living, or... you could just enjoy some laughs & silly times. There's something in it for everyone.

"Camille" is rated PG-13 and even that is a bit stern. There's no nudity, no gratuitous sex or violence, and hardly any profanity that I can remember. Compared to other modern rom-coms, it may seem watered down to some, but to me it was even more refreshing. Like a fairytale, there's something about it that makes you feel like a kid again, even though the story can get pretty weird.

The acting & casting is perfect. Sienna pulls off the lead role of being a hopelessly cheerful girl without being sappy or annoying. Her beau is the perfect counterpart: a cynical rogue but with a boyish innocence and cute crooked smile that makes you instantly like him, even when he's being a total butt. And David Carradine as the wise- yet-kooky cowboy... wow, what can I say but he has a great comedy career ahead of him if he chooses to go that way.

So don't hesitate to go see this film. It's a rom-com, a road movie, an emotional drama, a fantasy & above all else a fairytale. If more movies were like this, I'd probably start going to the theater again.

What a truly moronic movie, all I can say is the writer must be very fond of magic mushrooms and LSD because this must be the result of one of his 'trips'.

You follow the whole movie thinking alright this is very weird but hey I'm sure at the end there will be a perfectly good explanation for all of this... Only to be disappointed to find erm no there's no explanation at all and the twist at the end makes it even more confusing. At the end of the movie you'll probably have the same facial expression as if you were standing in a Que paying for you groceries and the merchant told you, that'll be 11.95 please and proceeded to elbow you in the balls for no apparent reason. There are so many factors in this movie that go unexplained and I think it leaves it to the imagination of the viewer in an entirely bizarre way. Don't get me wrong I like weird movies, 'The Cell' could easily be described as weird and twisted but in my eyes it's a brilliant movie (despite casting J-Lo who I dislike to the maximum even that didn't manage to sway my opinion). This isn't one of those movies, and I think you should take in to consideration the characters of those who praise this movie. I can tell you they are probably the sort of people that would go to an art exhibition, see a splat of pigeon excrement on a white board and say "Oooooh what a masterpiece, the artist has truly found a unique way to portray eternity" when in actual fact all it is, is bird excrement on a board.

Keep that last bit in mind when watching this movie,

Thanks for reading!

Super original. Really great movie! James Franco and Sienna Miller really do go so well together on screen. I sure hope it comes out soon. I first saw this movie at a screening. Because of my age and gender, I was asked to stay for a "talk." We all got to comment on the movie and a lot of people didn't seem to like it. I really loved it and I don't know why so many people didn't think it was that good. Go see it when it comes out and decide for yourself! One thing that you might want to do if you are going to see this movie is to go into it not knowing anything about it. I had not known anything when I went to the screening other than, it was called, "Camile." It really is worth seeing.

Quite an entertaining movie. I would not call it great, though and it certainly didn't make me cry ( I was rather hoping for a chick flick with a few tears but alas my friends and myself must be more hard hearted than some of the others who have commented on this film!) It was unusual, I liked the twist in the story and I thought all the characters involved were appealing in their own ways. David Carradine seems to have cornered the market in 'quirky but likable' nowadays and he does it yet again here (Im not knocking him, I think he's great) For those of you looking for a watchable romantic film with a difference this is probably it - if you don't want to look too hard....

The main reason why I saw CAMILLE it's because it has a nice cast and looked like a comedy. But when I saw it last December I knew I was in for trouble some half-hour after it began. Why it's so bad? Let's see.

Silas Parker and Camille Forster (James Franco and Sienna Miller) are just married and decide to go to Niagara falls for their honeymoon. Silas is a criminal that married Camille because she's the niece of a parole officer so that would be a chance for escaping to Canada, tho Camille looks blind to having not noticed how Silas really feels. On their way they crash their honeymoon bike and Camille looks like killed, tho when Silas goes to call for the police we soon see Camille alive and washing herself in the river. In the meanwhile police suspects that Silas killed for real Camille and the couple is forced to escape ending to live with an old rodeo cowboy that owns painted horses. An horse in particular named Maggie and painted in blue should have died time ago but still stays with his owner and other horses for unknown reasons.

Then we are shown something unexplained; the cowboy has some sort of breakdown and frees all the horses, mounts Maggie and ride towards the sunset. Soon Silas and Camille go on a boat tour and when Camille asks someone to take a picture Silas notices she's gone. Then he has the genius idea of going back to her only to be noticed by the police that chases him up to the Niagara falls' border. Then as police shoots Silas, Camille shows up riding on Maggie (she probably went lightning fast, killed the cowboy and stole the horse but it's not shown to us) and they mount together, and then Silas, Camille and Maggie fall down to the falls (probably plummeting to their deaths) and then rice falls from the sky!?

As I was watching this movie I knew I was in for some trouble when the accident at the beginning happened and after Camille is shown decaying then we see her again alive cleaning herself in the river. Uh!? Even Michael Caine's shoddily dried up shirt in JAWS THE REVENGE was better handled than this. Then the movie didn't went no better, as Camille looked like a dingaling, Silas like he was completely lacking of common sense and nearly everybody except Scott Glenn gave terrible performances like they knew they were in a terrible movie but couldn't come out of it before shooting began. And the ending, with the leads falling to the falls from the horse riding... that must be the worst rip-off of the THELMA AND LOUISE ending I have ever seen, tho I don't care if it was intentional or not that the director wanted to copy from better movies but in the end who cares?

Overall, a wretched movie that isn't even funny to laugh at because of the terrible acting and situations, and worst of all... nearly anything makes sense! Even if you are fans of some of the stars, it's too painful see them in this light.

Not a movie that everyone will enjoy perhaps, the weird plot alone is bound to test the patience of many viewers looking to watch perhaps your standard rom-com (which this is not).

Now mind you it is in a sense very much both a romance and comedy but it's also (perhaps even mostly) a fantasy film.

I can't go into any details without starting to spoiling stuff (even though a lot of the plot is open for interpretation) but if you're looking for something different and unique then this might just do the trick.

Has a bit of a rocky start though which makes you wonder where on earth this is going and occasionally the plot is a bit all over the place but if you give it some time and look aside some of the flaws then it should be worth your while.

James Franco and Sienna Miller both deliver fine performances in the leads and David Carradine has a nice supporting role, the soundtrack is also really good and give it that extra push so you can get all the right feels.

I loved it. Others have revealed spoilers, but I won't. It was an unusual premise, actually sort of weird, but I went along with it completely. Camille was a difficult part to pull off convincingly; maybe that's why some people hated it. But I think Sienna was excellent and her acting skills enabled her to nail the part perfectly - without being maudlin or ridiculous. I don't know why she was even interested in a loser like James Franco, but married him anyway. I like him as an actor and also thought he did a terrific job. He has nothing to be ashamed of. There have been movies with with similar setups e.g. "Ghost". I simply love Sienna Miller and went along with the situation as written in the script. I feel her great acting talent is vastly underrated, and hope it becomes more recognized by the public. I thought all of the actors played their parts very well, and hope more people get to see the movie. I highly recommend it. I was surprised that my local Block Buster store had about 10 copies available. I definitely plan to buy it.

I don't know why Camille was marketed as a quirky comedy; it's so sad! Watching the preview will give you an entirely different idea of the full movie, so when you rent it, take along a couple of Kleenexes just in case.

Sienna Miller starts the movie as a silly, vapid, chatty, bride-to-be looking forward to a honeymoon at Niagara Falls. James Franco isn't looking forward to getting married, but he feels stuck since Sienna's uncle, Scott Glenn, is his parole officer. Sienna's terribly in love with him, but he's sick of her and has trouble saying his vows. During a motorcycle accident on the way to Niagara Falls, Sienna is killed. Here's where the sad drama comes in: her spirit is revived, and she doesn't realize she's dead. Sienna's body starts to smell and decay, but she's just as anxious as ever to continue the journey with her husband to Niagara Falls. As the movie continues, Franco's guilt and pity make way to love as he struggles to keep her as alive as he can.

The one fault I found with this movie was the huge change in Sienna's character from life to death. She's no longer silly and irritatingly chatty after the accident, so when Franco falls in love with her, he's not suddenly realizing value in qualities he initially despised. To me, that's not the greatest fault in the world, so I was still able to really enjoy this fantasy drama.

I'm still struggling to figure out why this movie was marketed as an offbeat romance. The preview makes dramatic lines seem funny; when James Franco finally admits his wife is dead to David Carradine, it's a dramatic moment, not a chance to show off his comic timing. The promotional poster shows Sienna in her horrendously fake red wig, but it doesn't explain why she's wearing it. In the movie, as her body decays, her hair falls out. Franco robs a cosmetic store to help her skin look like it still has some color, and on the way out of the store as the alarm blares, he grabs a red wig off a mannequin. Sienna is sobbing when he gives her the wig, but somehow the studio wanted would-be audiences to think it was quirky?

This movie is extremely sad, and helped along with Mark Mancina's tearjerker music, and it makes you think about showing appreciation for those you love while you can. Both leads give very strong, convincing performances that change throughout the film. Characters are always more interesting, and actors are given a bigger range, when they change and grow. Sienna goes through an obvious change, and she also has to face acceptance of what has and is going to happen to her body and spirit. Franco starts the movie stubborn, grumpy, rude, and mean. He's unlikable and has a long way to go before the audience can forgive him, but through his tender and sympathetic expressions, he changes into someone sweet, deep-feeling, and likable.

This probably isn't a great choice to watch on a first date, but if you're in the mood to have a good cry with your girlfriends, go ahead and rent it. You'll get a lot out of it, and you'll be really impressed by both leads.

I saw this movie at a screener and its the best movie I have seen in a loooong time. I loved it!!!! James Franco is sooo hot and him and Sienna Miller make the perfect couple. I don't want to give away what happens but they play a pair of newlyweds who go off on their honeymoon to Niagara Falls and some pretty wild stuff happens along the way....The movie is really really funny and sad and original. I can't even say what it reminded me of, but go see it! I cried so hard but really loved it and wanna see it again as soon as it comes out! My friends cried too. I hope it comes out soon - does anyone know when? i would really go see it if i were you

Franco, carradine, miller, all nominated for huge awards during their careers. Silas (franco) is marrying camille (miller), who just happens to be his parole officer's neice. And things are already off to a rocky start, as they head to niagara falls for the honeymoon. Fighting, highway accidents, stolen wallets. What's going to happen next? For one thing, they keep bumping into cowboy bob, who has a weird outlook on life. But he turns out to be a good friend. After that... it all gets pretty odd. And weird. And sweet. Can't say too much. I have a theory about what really happened, but you should watch it and decide for yourself what really happened. Interesting ending, for sure. Directed by gregory mackenzie. This appears to be his only full length, feature film direction so far. Story by nick pustay.

There is nothing redeemable about this film. Thankfully I don't think anyone saw it at the theatre because if could have been career suicide for Sienna Miller and James Franco and make me wonder how they could even sign on for a film with such a horrible script.
