Summary: Excellent!
Review: This is a truly fascinating movie. It is dark, surreal, and even comic towards the beginning. Absolute heaven for any Twin Peaks obsessee, like me. I think I'll take the pleasure of quoting the cover when I say "Sheryl Lee deserves an Oscar nomination!" It's true, Sheryl Lee takes her role like putty in her hands, and shapes it to be exactly what it should be - as one reviewer said, it's easy to feel her pain, and it's easy to feel her love. On top of an excellent movie, Sheryl Lee is an excellent actress.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The finest film I've ever seen
Review: The Amazon review suggests that anyone who didn't see the Twin Peaks TV series can't understand this film. I didn't see that series, know nothing of its characters, but was much impressed with the Lynch I'd seen to date (Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart). I took in the first part of the film without a problem, smiling through much, and admiring Lynch's guts. Then the real movie starts. I didn't smile at anything else in the film. In fact, I was emotionally numb for about two hours after it ended. I'd never been so shaken by a film. You need to love the main character, to feel this much pain, and Sheryl Lee makes it easy. What does she say to her "true" boyfriend--"The Laura you used to know doesn't exist anymore. There's only me." We get to see if not where the original Laura went then why. Smile through the first part. You'll know when it's over. He's just setting you up for the kill.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Greatest of all time
Review: Words cannot describe the hypnotic beauty of this film I recomend it to anyone with an open mind

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lynch`s hypnotic masterpiece
Review: This trimmed movie has a lot of hypnotic scenes, like the long nightclub one. Sheryl Lee plays Laura Palmer with daring intensity and talent. It is a movie, not the famous TV Show. You can see horror and gore, nudity and vulgarity, violence and drug abuse, sadness and happyness. Chris Isaak, Harry Dean Stanton, David Bowie, Kiefer Sutherland and Moira Kelly are new. If you like "Pulp Fiction" or "American Pie"- this movie is for you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Underrated
Review: This is one of the scariest movies ever made, easily. Most audiences and critics found it too weird, but if you can easily let yourself fall into the dreamy Lynch universe, you'll come away with an experience you'll never forget. Lynch doesn't let adherence to logic weigh him down. He understands the artifice of film, and he goes straight for the emotional gut, logic be damned! This is my favorite of Lynch's color films.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The Ultimate "I'm stoned" Movie
Review: See this movie for reasons of your own (curiosity, the bewilderment, a good "trip") but buy it for the dancing midget.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a great film by a great director
Review: david lynch is a master of the human mind and his movies are amazing. fire walk with me should be seen at least once by all!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lynch's finest since 'Eraserhead'
Review: As a young surrealist and a great admirirer of Lynch's work, I watched 'Twin Peaks' for its fine cohesion of dream and reality-and Lynch's main theme: the interference in human life by otherwordly beings. These beings then pervert time and reality to carry out there own mystifying whims. 'Twin Peaks' is definetly Lynch's greatest work since his first film. There are some increadible scenes in here. Bowie's entrance into the FBI headquarters and his bizarre story. Cooper's confrontation with the man from another place. Leland's anger at Laura about washing her hands. An excellent piece. Do not miss it. I am the arm. . .and I sound like this.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of Lynch's most brilliant works.
Review: This movie is completely fantastic. It's like a complement for the series, and to we know how was Laura Palmer, when she was alive. But, for the ones than never watch the series, and never heard about David Lynch, it'll be kind of weird. If you're one of them, start to watch Lynch's works, than watch the Twin Peaks entire series ( Now avaible in VHS ) them watch Fire Walk With Me. But, if you're one of the series fans and you didn't watch the movie yet, have fun ! I totally recommend !

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Lynch is weird
Review: I have seen this movie several times, partly in an attemp to figure it out. The general story is understandable, but it's the details that bother me. Sometimes I think Lynch is weird just to be weird. If this is the case, it is not an admirable quality of a film. For me, it seemed to drag a little (but not as bad as Lost Highway). I thought the series was much better. It had an entirely different aura about it. One thing in the series that is missing from the movie is comic relief. It's just heavy and drags its weight through the whole thing. I guess it just shows what happens when you leave Lynch on his own (minus Mark Frost). On the other hand, the soundtrack is fantastic. It's one of the best albums I own.
