Dani G The transition to cinematic maturity of Peter Jackson and a lovely young Kate Winslet in this rather obscure teen drama Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review Blu B All Time Classic. It's like someone took Tim Burton & Sam Raimi and merged them together, you'd get this. It's a dark drama, comedy, and fantasy mixed together in one of the most surreal things I've seen. The bizarre frantic camerawork, amazing fantasy scenes, and just very quirky original scenes in general are almost unforgettable overall. If I can find one fault the acting is really good but Kate Winslet is incredible in this and no one comes up to her level of energy and obsession. whenever it just involves Pauline it's not as riveting but fortunately the two are together the majority of the time. It's amazing how surreal, charming, and twisted this can be and never feels out of place. Everyone should give this a try once. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/24 Full Review Leaburn O Well directed. Feels silly at first but builds creepily to a weird ending. Masterfully reflects the rambling idiocy of a young teenage girl’s mind as written in her diary. Watched on DVD. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Joseph C Peter jackson's most timeless masterpiece, after the lord of the rings trilogy of course. one word to describe this movie is haunting Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Jeff M Like a fine wine, the experience of this movie continues to improve with age, and I become more and more spellbound after each viewing. The fact that this is a true story makes it even more remarkable. I have never seen a film that balances so well the transition between reality and fantasy. Jackson brings the daydreams of these teenage girls to splendid life. Lynskey and Winslet are beyond wonderful, but I want to give a special notice to Sarah Peirse as Pauline's mom. It is a heartbreaking performance, and my heart absolutely bleeds for her. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Luis M. D Both in style and substance this movie succeeds. It's an excellent depiction of child psychopathy. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
