Nicely articulated, a very good review. I loved this film despite all the negative reviews. Jodelle Ferland's performance is flawless and beautiful. Guilliam's second best I think after Brazil.
I LOVED Tideland and all Terry Gilliam's films. I love films that take me completely out of any predictability and away from commercial cliches. This film was a mindfck but a strangely wonderful intense one. The little girl should have been given a BEST ACTRESS OSCAR. Absolutely incredible performance. Terry please keep making these original works of art. The non-comformist need you.
I really enjoyed this movie, it's among my all-time favorites. It made me uncomfortable and I squirmed in my chair, but I think that was what Gilliam intended.
in the movie shes filming right now Jodelle is sucha sweetheart. Jodelle and her mother were here with my aunt well we were on set and my aunt is the amekup artist but. jodelle has been a actress sicne she was 3 years old and shes amazing.

GREAT ! Yes Grimm was disappointing but slightly better the 2nd time when expectations weeren't so high. But Tideland blew my mind. Deeply moving, surreal, disturbing and inventive. Terry is back. I hope he can continue to shock and awe despite corporate strangling
I am sick of all the close minded cookie cutter reviews about this movie, not every movie needs to be a main stream / block buster / water cooler movie.
Hey, nice review! Glad you enjoyed Tideland, and Jodelle's work. But just to clear something up, this is not Jodelle's first starring role, she's been in over 36 films, and her first starring role was when she was only 4 years old. ;) I
No, I don't mean to start a fight, but you're wrong. Jodelle's first STARRING role was in "Mermaid" in 2000. Trust me, I ran Jodelle's official fansite for 2 years and I know the Ferlands personally. I have her official resume, and "Tideland" was also a STARRING role, but she had 2 before that ("Mermaid" and "Christmas Child"). If you download her official resume, you'll see I'm right. ;)
COMPLETELY agree! Why did folks hate this film so much? It's brilliant! If you haven't read the book yet, I highly recommend it. It's wonderful!
