VHS Movie Reviews of Love Me If You Dare (Sub)
Movie Review: End it before it ends!
Summary: 3 Stars
The excellent short story "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" by J.D. Salinger goes on one page too long. So, when I reread it. . .and I do. . .I quit the story with Sybil and Seymour coming ashore from their afternoon swim. It is true Seymour--it is his fate as the most gifted poet in the Glass family--must die. But not here.
Likewise, "Love Me If You Dare (Are You Game?)" should end sooner. And, when I watch it again. . .and I plan to because, for a while it is a great movie: charming and moving at the beginning, edgy and true in the middle. . .I will stop it early into chapter 9 as the tin rolls down the church aisle. . .End it!
End it! I will quit this film before it, like Seymour Glass, commits suicide.
Summary of Love Me If You Dare (Sub)
A huge hit in France, Love Me if You Dare takes the traditional l'amour fou scenario and runs it through a pinball machine. From childhood, Julien and Sophie engage in an obsessive battle of one-upmanship: if one of them hands a brightly colored candy tin to the other and makes a dare, the recipient is bound to honor it, no matter how destructive or dangerous the dare might be. When this wacky habit enters adulthood and begins wrecking their lives, they ought to change... but that's not how l'amour fou works. Part Amelie-style comedy, part dark fable, this movie has quirkiness to burn, if not always as much charm as it thinks it has. Leads Guillaume Canet and Marion Cotillard are ardent, although somewhat out-acted by their juvenile counterparts in the film's early section. If you're curious about what would've happened to Amelie if she took her obsession to its logical conclusion, hop aboard. --Robert HortonArt House & International VHS Video
