David Fear Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review John Monaghan Detroit Free Press What better way to spend 97 minutes in November than trying to sort out romantic complications in shorts and sailboats? Rated: 3/4 Nov 16, 2007 Full Review Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times Straight ahead in form but unnerving and unexpected in content. Rated: 4/5 Oct 12, 2007 Full Review Prairie Miller NewsBlaze More in the nature of audience eavesdropping on some scandalous neighbors than gripping or meaningful storytelling, the film is wracked with superficial, amoral characters and petty, hand wringing sordid emotional preoccupations and obsessions. Jun 5, 2008 Full Review Boyd van Hoeij european-films.net If Krohmer and Knocke meticulously crafted the world Miriam inhabits, it is Gedeck's presence that makes it such a tangible mess -- which is meant as high praise indeed. Oct 30, 2007 Full Review Ken Fox TV Guide The film unfolds with cold, Chabrolian detachment and quietly builds to a coolly satisfying denouement that leaves everyone involved -- including the audience -- second-guessing everything that's come before. Rated: 3/4 Aug 1, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member The driveway doesn't quite reach the garage. Good intentions though... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Summer '04 is a weird little number with actors who are trying to have a good go of it but never get anywhere. There are affairs with few consequences. There are adorations of an underage girl..with few consequences or normal thought. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member An odd one. Liked the european awkwardness. Don't like the plot so much. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Sommer '04 handles prickly subject matter with the lightness of a summer breeze. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member una extraña historia tal como el comportamiento humano Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Huh...this was far, far worse than expected. A psychological thriller? I suppose it was psychological in that none of the characters behaved like humans I have ever met and it was somewhat thrilling to predict the next idiotic move. It was only slightly more interesting than a bad American movie because it was German. Rare to see a film where all of the male characters are inane.
