So dissapointing - I Am Love review by CP Customer
Why did this film receive so many awards?? Yes there are some good actors and actresses and the location is pretty but it is so boring and I could not connect to any of the characters so that when tragedy strikes I felt "who cares"!

enjoyed this - I Am Love review by pete b
really enjoyed this film. marvellous depiction of the inner workings of an italian family. the pace of the film is just perfect. one of those films where you just marvel at how good a film can be. have since watched a couple of other films by same director, but without the same sense of awe, in fact no awe at all..but watch this film, it's very very very good.

BREATHTAKING - I Am Love review by hp
It is breathtaking that millions starve while large sums are spent on films like this: how in God's name did it ever get made? a stunning exercise in vacuity...
