Le ISunset Boulevard/I du IIIe millenaire ? Impossible de ne pas evoquer le chef-d'#339;uvre de Billy Wilder pour rendre compte de cette #339;uvre dense et poetique, qui bouscule les conventions cinematographiques pour le plus grand plaisir de nos yeux, de nos sens et de notre intelligence. Comme tous les grands films de Lynch, IMulholland Drive/I dechire le voile des apparences : derriere l'intrigue rassurante de la succes story d'une starlette hollywoodienne, se cache un fascinant voyage au bout de la nuit, un enivrant cauchemar labyrinthique entre reve et realite ; ou se telescopent une brune amnesique et une jeune blonde aux portes de la gloire. D'abord concu comme un pilote de serie televisee, IMulholland Drive/I appelle la comparaison avec ITwin Peaks/I, tandis que la figure de la dualite feminine evoque ILost Highway/I et IBlue Velvet/I. Maitrise de bout en bout, le 9e film de l'auteur d'IEraserhead/I a tout pour devenir le premier chef-d'#339;uvre de ce millenaire : le regard ironique d'un cineaste en pleine possession de ses moyens ; des comediennes inconnues desormais elevees au rang d'icones cinematographiques (Naomi Watts et Laura Elena Harring) ; une musique a la fois envoutante, entetante et voluptueuse, que l'on doit a Angelo Badalamenti ; le souvenir tenace et hypnotique que procure la vision renouvelee de ce tissu de reves "etranges et penetrants", entre plaisir et mystere, jouissance et horreur. IMulholland Drive/I a obtenu le prix de la mise en scene Cannes 2001. I--Sylvain Lefort/I

 Favourite film of all time November 23, 2007

Like Kevin Smith, the first time I saw this film I was stupefied. "What?!" Repeated viewings disabused me of the notion that there was nothing in this film to understand. I now think this is a work of absolute genius br / br /Originally written and filmed as a TV pilot, the ending was only written after the show was rejected. Knowing the history of the genesis of the film only increased my appreciation for its craft, because the ending qualitatively transforms the entire first three quarters of the film. I cannot comprehend how Lynch was able to think of an ending that turned the whole first part of the film on its head, making it meaningful on a completely different, and more subtle layer. br / br /For first time viewers, I can only say that it's important to pay attention to the whole film. Every shot. Colours, symbols, recurring objects and motifs, all play a part in revealing the film's secrets. I can't recommend this movie highly enough.
A daring film unafraid to break molds and expand the artistic element of cinema January 6, 2007

I've seen this movie a few times and it's been very enjoyable. Film critics who value the avant-garde and the experimental are often very fond of this one. It's a well-crafted drama with significant elements of surrealism as well as eccentric occurences. I think it's positive reputation comes mostly from its component of mystery - audiences are now able to value films which are challenging and not fully explained. It has a quite a bit of psychological content that is interesting for those who appreciate this film by David Lynch.
Visually stunning and thought provoking October 17, 2006

My husband and I loved this movie. Of course, the first time we watched it, we were both totally confused at the end. Hubby immediately logged on to the internet to find out a bit more about this movie. He came back with some very intriguing theories. We spent the next day talking about this movie and discussing out thoughts. We then realized that we had to watch it again with 'fresh' eyes. This time, we noticed all kinds of things that had passed by unnoticed during the first viewing. We would have watched it again but it was already overdue at the store... br / br /This movie is beautiful to watch and filled with amazing performances. You will never be completely sure of the real story. But that is part of the fun of this movie. My husband and I have never watched a movie that had us in its grip like this. We are still talking about it a week later... br / br /There are no car chases or nice tidy resolutions at the end. Yes, there is a lesbian love scene but that is not why we watched the movie more than once as one reviewer suggested ;).
Cool, creepy and confusing! December 28, 2005

You just can't find this kind of movie in mainstream Hollywood. It's original, artistic and unpredictable all the way through. Mulholland Drive is gorgeously shot, and David Lynch truly deserved that Oscar nomination for Best Director. Naomi Watts, Laura Elena Harring and Justin Theroux are well-cast as the three leads. pThere is never a boring moment: I became engrossed (and entangled) in the plot, paying attention to the slightest detail and hoping that I could piece together the surreal mystery. Lynch, the Master of Tension, can make your muscles tighten with almost no effort at what would have otherwise been a rather mundane scene under the hands of a lesser director. He keeps you guessing at every step of the way as the story unravels. And despite the film's serious tone, there is still humour to be found.pMost people found the second part of the movie confusing, and I had to rewatch the whole thing several times over before I was able to figure out what Lynch might have intended to tell us. However, this process didn't frustrate me at all, and if anything, it made me appreciate his talent even more. Only a true artist can inspire an outside observer to obsessively pick apart every layer to uncover the work's full meaning.pJust so you know, the DVD itself doesn't contain much in terms of extras (only a trailer and cast profiles), and there are no scene selections. Apparently, this was done on Lynch's insistence that Mulholland Drive be watched in a single sitting.

nothing. you get nothing from this movie. its basically a pretentious piece of work that calls itself art. david lynch did a terrible job, and the story had no substance. The end made no sense. just an all around waste of time.
