Québec-Montréal

This low-budget road-movie tackles men-women relationships with humor, drama and a lot of dialogue, which the young, mostly unknown actors deliver marvelously. Interestingly enough, this story, which mostly takes place inside cars, is very entertaining, with many different views on it's subject (through all the main characters) and a sometimes thoughtful dramatic foundation which brings every thread of the story together wonderfully at the end, shaping the fragile balance between companionship and division with a song by Sinéad O'Connor: 'This Is The Last Day of Our Acquaintance'. Funny, original and more clever than it might first appear to be.

This well directed and witty movie relates the stories of many people in their late twenties who travel from Quebec City to Montreal for various reasons and talk about relationships.

The protagonists' paths all cross in ways reminiscent of "Sidewalks of New York". However, the intertwining stories are clearly set in the province of Quebec and francophones from that region will immediately associate with the language and the social references used.

This is the best canadian movie relating the difficulties encountered in relationships since "The Myth of the Male Orgasm". It provides material for laughter and for thought.

What a surprise to me. I go to the cinema in the hope of see Signs, but I was too late. So, I buy a ticket to see Québec-Montréal and... wow, a pretty interesting film. Made a low budget, like others canadian movies, we focus here on the characters and their relations between each others. It's funny, strange, but the last five minutes are, for me, a sad end. Make your own judgement.

I'm not that big a fan of the local movies around here, but I was told to see this one, and so I did, and I sure as hell don't regret it. The discussions are incredibly real, not so much a scenario and actors as plain people just talking about relationships. What's so impressive and scary is the fact that you recognize yourself in each one of the character and that in itself will make you think for a while about who you really are, who you're becoming, depending on your age. A very funny film, trust me.

When I saw the poster of this film I thought: another stupid film. But I was completely wrong. Québec-Montréal has a brilliant script and a excellent editing.

The story takes us from Quebec city to Montreal in 4 different cars. Not much action but great dialogues. Young people between 25 and 30 years old talk about love, sex and respect. They sure have a hard time understanding the 3 subjects.

All the actors are terrific.

Don't miss that film.
