Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Kirpianuscus or from the past. simple. and powerful. for the script, the acting and the different problems who defines a concert of Bolshoi Theater. the humor, the memories, the desire to create the present as revenge of the past failure, the strange characters and the flavor of different cultures, mixed, defined one by the other are marks of Mihaileanu. the Concert preserves each of them and use the nuances in a splendid fresco about art and success. it is something magic in this film. the scenes about past, the meetings, the old secrets, the crumbs of the every day reality , the respiration of a dream who becomes reality. a film about a trip to yourself.

nimbleland I ordered this DVD version from Amazon not realizing that it was dubbed. Amazon has taken steps to update the site. The Distribution for North America is completely dubbed in English and not a good dub at that. I did order from the UK the Original Russian/French version with English subtitles, Amazon thought my DVD Player would handle it, but the DVD Player alerted me that my TV was too old to play PAL. I did get it to play on my computer, but that defeats the whole purpose.I saw the Original at SIFF, took my Brother and his wife to see it. We were all crying at the end. The Original is a 10, and I am also aware this is related to Orchestra from Japan. Still I rate the Original a 10, the English Dubbing a 6.

Marcos I really don't remember any movie that made my avoid blinking for such a long period of time.The summary describes all my feelings for this movie. Excellence at its best !--------Just to complete the minimum of 10 lines of text I will try to give some more information about the movie.Acting was surprisingly good even though at the beginning that's not very clear. The quality of the shots is OK, not over the usual movie shots but under no circumstances bad. Music is surreal, you really fell like you are in the theater.

Orr Yoeli-Rimmer This is a fantastic little film which unfortunately hasn't achieved the success it deserves. It manages to combine screwball comedy and farcical satire with THE most moving musical sequence I have ever come across in the cinema. Whilst the plot does get a little ropey and some sequences drag on, the film is held together by a string of fine performances, especially from Melanie Laurent, who really stars in a difficult role. Also, the climactic scene really is worth the wait! Highly recommended if you, as I do, have some eastern European Jew in you as the style of comedy as well as the dramatic elements will assume an even more poignant brilliance. I went to watch this film with my dad, who hails from Moldova originally and he was blubbering in the seat next to me for the entire last 30 minutes.
