Along Mulholland Drive nothing is what it seems. In the unreal universe of Los Angeles, the city bares its schizophrenic nature, an uneasy blend of innocence and corruption, love and loneliness, beaut...( read more

September 22, 2009Alright, I have tried to watch this at least three or four times. I still have not had the patience to watch it all the way through its two and a half hours in one sitting. But at least I have seen all of the movie now.
I don't like it. Not my type of movie. I like logic i...( read more) -
August 29, 2009Really confusing. Most of it came together at the end, but there were still a few parts I couldn't figure out for myself. Thank goodness for the internet!

June 18, 2009Once you embrace Lynch's surrealist non-linear style, going along for the ride is a lot easier and enjoyable. With very little over-embellishment he keeps your eyes glued to the screen, keen to follow wherever it is he might lead you next.

April 5, 2009They say that there is a very fine line between genius and madness, no one I know illustrates this more than David Lynch. I can think of no other director who is as adept at guiding a film along the meridian between the real and the surreal.

February 21, 2009If ever there was a film that required multiple viewings it's this one!
I'm still fresh from watching this film, with my brain enthusiastically trying to piece together all the pieces of the puzzle, but if I never manage to, it will still be a most enjoyable film.
For anyo...( read more) -
November 16, 2009Some of Lynch's best work. The last thirty minutes or so is just flawless, it makes me wish that the rest of the film would've been able to be shot like that. I think i'm just complaining to complain though. The majority of the movie's style is a great parody of melodrama. Naomi ...( read more)

November 16, 2009Without doubt the weirdest and most surreal film I have ever seen. You really have to watch closely to even try to follow what is going on in this film, then even the ending leaves you hanging. It's difficult to understand but the acting is excellent.

October 12, 2001
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
A wonderfully Lynchian dive into the dream and the reality of Hollywood, moviemaking, acting and love. full review
October 12, 2001
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Works because Lynch is absolutely uncompromising. full review
October 11, 2001
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
A gorgeously rounded picture, one that starts out with a glamorous come-hither wink and has the good grace to follow through, although perhaps not in the way we expect. full review
October 11, 2001
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Fans of Lynch will find much to savor here: the ripe detail, the arch humor, the hallucinatory enigmas, the eroticism, the terror. full review

David Edelstein, Slate
This distinctly Hollywood nightmare makes a deeper kind of sense. full review

October 18, 2009David Lynch' movies are mysterious, takes you to another world, dark, and beautiful....
You can watch his movies many times and still uncover mysteries..... -
December 27, 2007or maybe Lynch doesn't have an explanation for it, so he's trying to be all smart about it by refusing to explain the movie!
-
November 28, 2007i believe that what this movie makes so brilliant is ...that it forces you to pay attention to the little details , like the part where the camera makes a look to the pair of legs,when they are on their way to the room number 12 ..and i trudly believe that it can be completely interpreted
-
July 16, 2007dont worry i dont get it either, probably coz i kept falling to sleep because this movie was so boring

June 8, 2007one of the greatest movies ever made, doesn't need an explanation, it's better without one.
-
May 21, 2007I find it quite funny when this film is compared to Memento. This film has you noticing new hidden, subtle messages after the umpteenth viewing, whereas Memento is, although entertaining, quite self explanatory really.

March 4, 2007Lots of people seem to think this movie is great but nobody ever came up with a good reason for it.
Its not like I was some dude who prefers blockbusters, I love good movies but I dont think Mullholland Drive isnt that great.
Prove me wrong and I'll agree with you though ... but nobody ever got to prove to me it was great. -
November 26, 2006A movie of such a calibre doesn't need an explanation. It would be disgraced by one.
