I don't know why this film hits me the way it does, whether it's the depiction of the protagonist or the deterministic despair that slowly grows as one watches. All I know is that in all its aspects, from production design to script to score this film is as close to perfect for me as something is liable to get. The only weak link is Kim Greist, whose performance lags behind the others'.

Well it's a fantasy movie set in a technological dystopia. It mixes slapstick and a certain sadness of being in a dead end job in a society that is run by poorly maintained machines. It is a really visual movie... often times the stunning visuals actually take over the movie but I didn't really invest much into this movie, except for a couple scenes. But still, because of the masterful images, I'll give this 80.

A wonderful and imaginative tale of romance in an unfeeling bureaucracy. Gilliam's imagery is both fun and bizarre.

The great opus which brought Hollywood to it's knees, what a great and powerful feature film Gilliam has made. Its distinct style and message can only be overshadowed by the pure creative juices it cooks up.

Gilliam is incredibly scattershot, but this is the closest he's come to making a movie where everything works and fits together.
