Amélie is a shy waitress in a Montmartre café. After returning a long-lost childhood treasure to a former occupant of her apartment, and seeing the effect it has on him, she sets out on a mission to make others happy using her own quirky sense of justice. In the process however it becomes clear that Amelie's own life is a little empty and she gathers her courage to pursue her own happiness. The film is a visual triumph, a sensual delight, and features a stunning soundtrack by Yann Tiersen.

 ... similar to all of them? is it the balance of what is right and wrong and how the innocent and pure get what they deserve? listing all this pretty much answered my question, of course this is a masterpiece, i could watch this film blind and still love it to death, or vise versa i could watch it deaf and be dazzled! But there was something else to this film, something that kept me thinking and smiling for days after? i couldn't put my finger on it up until the point i just couldn't resist another viewing.

Amelie is one of the nicest, most imaginative foreign movies that I have seen in some time. Telling the story of a shy, introverted waitress working in a small Parisian cafe, the film is chock full of surreal imagery and beautifully imagined set pieces that carry the story along to it's happy and upbeat conclusion. Following a very troubled childhood in which Amelie finds herself often resorting to her own imagination (her mother is killed when a suicide jumping from a building lands on top of her), the film really begins when Amelie discovers a loose piece of skirting in her bathroom and behind it a childhood box of secrets left there by a previous inhabitant ...  Read the complete review

Whilst myself and fellow dooyooer 'reluctantreviews' were looking for something to watch the other night, we came across 'Amelie' or 'Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain' to give it it's original and slightly longwinded French title. As one of us hadn't seen it for years, and the other hadn't seen it at all, we decided to give it a viewing. Directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, the film tells the story of Amelie Poulain (Audrey Tautou), an unusual but imaginative woman who is adept at noticing the finer details of life. Upon finding a box in her apartment containing the childhood toys and assorted memorabilia of a former resident, Amelie decides to locate the box's ...  Read the complete review

Amelie Pouline did not have a normal childhood, she grew up with her ultra strict mother, who was a head mistress and a bag of nerves most of the time and her father who has a serious case of obsessive compulsive disorder. As a young girl, Amelie always longed for her fathers attention, but often never got it, so when it came for her father to do his monthly health check on her, her little heart beat twice as fast as normal. This convinced Amelie’s parents that she has a strange heart defect and should not ever go to school. So Amelie is forced to grow up without any friends, which allows her imagination to run wild, se starts to talk to moving pictures and imaginary ...  Read the complete review

As you have probably worked out, the film Amelie, or rather, Le Fabuleux destin d' Amélie Poulain, is a French film, but don't let that put you off - you'll never see anything else like it in your life! It's a truly unique film that you experience rather than just watch! THE STORYLINE Within the first five minutes of the film, we are introduced to the young Amelie Poulain (Audrey Tautou) and her parents. Although not by any means dislike, they don't seem to particularly love their daughter. In fact, physical contact is so ...  Read the complete review

Rating:

Amelie, or to give the film(yes its a film, not a movie for the benefit of David Fincher fans) its correct title "Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain", is a magical piece of French cinema which is so richly deserving of all the accolades thrown at it during last years award ceremonies. "Magical" is usually a word reserved solely for the likes of the next Disney production or megabucks Spielberg special effects extravaganza but Amelie weaves its own magical and uplifting experience through the sheer brilliance(and cuteness) of its central character and beauty of an entirely quirky storyline which is guaranteed to leave you on an emotional high. Its ...  Read the complete review
