Summary: DEJA VU: Have you met the love of your life?
Review: If you're a hopeless romantic, then this is the movie for you! Not only does it examine the lifestyles we choose or settle for when it comes to love, but it also deals with the inner struggle we experience between our heart and mind when falling in love, and how coincidences can(if we let them)transform our lives. I promise you that the very last scene of this movie will melt your heart completely.

Summary: Worst "professional" movie we have ever seen!!
Review: My wife and I watched this together one evening and found ourselves laughing at how bad it was from top to bottom.The worst acting, writing, and cinematography in a film made by professionals that we have ever seen!! There MAY be worse b-movies or low grade independents than this, sure,but in the 10 years we've been watching films together we haven't seen one that rivals this for all around bad and we have seen a LOT of films. Still most reviewers at this site love this film, so tastes are very different. It is suspicious though, that at one site I check which has reviews of most everything the last several years that has been released on video, this film is absent. I think I know why!!

Summary: Soulful messages
Review: Not great in the acting or dialog departments but Dillane is refreshing (as usual). Watch it for the content... Venessa Redgrave and her Mom appear in this film... I loved Venessa's line: "An illusion is a scent of what's real coming close." Definitely a "chick flick".

Summary: Eyes across a crowded room
Review: OK, so I'm a sucker for any book or film that has to do with serendipity, "coincidence", the passage of time and falling in love - so obviously I fell head-over-heels for this movie. This is not a cynical movie, but it is realistic. It's not about fate, it's about being presented with opportunities and exercising your free will. It's a movie about the suspension of disbelief and trusting something bigger than yourself. It's about life sometimes being inexplicable and accepting that fact. It's all about taking chances, having regrets and living with consequences. The acting is superb - most of the dialogue seems like it is improvised and this lends an immediacy to the film. Now, this may be off putting to people used to the typical Hollywood do-not-deviate-from-the-script approach to acting, but please just trust it and allow yourself to become involved. The main characters - Sean and Dana - have to make some hard choices when they acknowledge their feelings for each other. Each is deeply involved with someone else and the people they are involved with are not horrible people. This is not a romantic fantasy where someone finds their true love, casts off their dismal spouse and rides off into the cardboard sunset. This is real life, in all shades of black, white and grey. The circumstances the characters find themselves in repeatedly would seem to suggest fate, but they know better than that - what happens is up to them, it's a choice and not an easy one. Other characters in the movie have had to make choices in similar circumstances. After watching the movie you'll know that no one can say which choices were "better" than any others - all the choices people make and have to live with are valid even though they may seem foolish or cruel to others. And the universe has a way of working things out. Anyone who has had a similar experience will know just what I'm talking about. Those who haven't - well, perhaps you have something to look forward to...

Summary: remarkable
Review: the scenario of this movie is brilliant. the words that are said suits so much to the plot, but it really can be much effective with a slightly dramatic effects of camera movements usage of sound and emhasizing the close-ups...i don't know its so much inspiring me... thank anyway to putting some words to open view...its so brave to just let the words make us listen...

Summary: Great story line, poor acting.
Review: This could have been major hit, the acting was dry and the scenery was drab. The story line was so loving that it is still worth watching if you are a romantic person. Wish this could be redone with more warmth!

Summary: decent script. need another lead actress
Review: This film has potential. There are some poignant moments that explain chance happenings from a romantic's perspective and these were delivered by Vanessa Redgrave, who was the only actor i enjoyed watching in this movie. I was embarrassed watching the lead actress. She was whiny and seemed too old for the part because she didn't have that innocent/struggling to find own identity/trying to figure out the world quality or look about her. She looked like someone who has it figured out and used whining and hysterics to portray otherwise.

Summary: Deja Vu
Review: This is a marvelous movie. I was in the middle of purchasing all "Russell Crowe" movies when I rented this movie from Hollywood Video Stores. I was and remain entralled with this wonderful romantic story. Please see it if you can rent it. I am so tired of renting it, I wish the studios would release it again. It needs to find its audience and I can supply at least 10 members myself alone for any audience. Seriouly having just discovered Mr.Jaglom, I am going to make an effort to see as many of his films as I can.

Summary: A Lesson in Life
Review: This movie absolutely renewed my faith in life and love. The characters and the scenery are reminiscent of 'An Affair to Remember'. The beauty in the story lies in the intertwined love stories we see transpire across the generations. It's a wonderful movie for anyone who has loved and lost and reminds one of the power true love has over us all.
