Coisas de Casais

The 2 good things about this film were the costume and personality that Drew Barrymore had, and the way that they worked the 3 individuals stories into one another, which kept you a little in suspense. Other than that, this film didn't have much to offer. It wasn't romantic or funny. Not horrible either, though. I give it a 5/10 (Average)

I've just watched this movie and I found it very good. I decided to watch it because of Drew Barrymore - she is my favorite - but even though she didn't have a very big part I enjoyed this movie a lot. This movie is about a woman who wants the boyfriend of her "friend" and she does everything to take him from her. It is separated in three parts. In the first part it shows the whole story briefly. It stops in the most agonized scene. In the second part the story starts again, almost, from the beginning and shows more information about how and why and stops in the same scene and in the third and final part - which is colorless - it finishes and you finally understand what' s all this about... I put 9 out of 10

Okay, here's the deal. I recently saw this movie for the first time at 1 AM on NBC after Saturday Night Live. I was already tired and playing video games when I started listening to the start of this movie. I realized it was strange and crazy. I had to watch the whole thing, it just drew me in.

Given these conditions, I thought it was the best movie I have ever seen. Seriously, it was funny and heartfelt at the same time. It was artistic and clicked perfectly into the things I had recently been thinking about. It deals with perspective in a way that lays bare the absurd self-righteousness we all carry about; showing that we are all just confused adventurers in this awkward landscape of life controlled by chance. If you like strange films and ideas and also have a soft spot for romantic comedies, I think you'll love this film. But I'm really not sure because I was really tired.

I saw this movie without anyone telling me about it or reading anything about it. It was much better than I expected. I thought it might be just another "chick flick" with a predictable story and ending. But it turned out to be a movie with a plot that is different and definitely entertaining. Lots of nice twists and surprises...especially how it ends. I don't remember seeing a movie before quite like this one. I would highly recommend it.

This is a cute, quirky little film, that has some pretty darned good acting performances in it. Drew Barrymore was good, and beautiful, as was Jennifer Beals. I wasn't very familiar with James LeGros, but he almost stole the show. Excellent characterization of "Max". I have to say that I did enjoy the basic device of the film, the use of different point of view characters, but the director eventually got too cutesy and that did detract from the movie. Grade: B-
