It's a romantic epic, an intense and gripping look at WWI, and a nifty little mystery-quest all rolled into one.

There's only so much candy the eye can consume before nausea sets in.

The overall assemblage is shaky, but grand.

a successful genre combination of a war film, period romance, detective story and black comedy

As in any fable, there are spires, towers and moats, and it's a spellbinding saga - a macabre dance choreographed by its romance's throbbing heart. Mathilde and Manech's love left its mark in many places, so why not the grungiest and war-torn?

Tautou, as always, makes this an enchanting trip.

This is grand cinema.

Filmmaker Jeunet applies his aestheticized approach (which worked well for Amelie) to a WWII melodrama to some mixed results.

A Very Long Engagement is every bit the fantasy, the fairy tale, that Amelie was, yet we are expected to take it seriously. I couldn't.

Merging heart-wrenching emotions with quirky humor and splicing bloody war footage with goofy comedy, the movie mixes vastly disparate elements into a surprisingly smooth blend.

Jean-Pierre Jeunet represents that select group of filmmakers who treat special effects as their own art.

The comic-dramatic divide of A Very Long Engagement is difficult to traverse, much less conquer. It's simply hard to be charmed with all those corpses scattered about.
