of course, if it doesn't have guns, car chases or superheros is an arthouse film, what a moronic and childish culture, don't ever try to expand this dried up imagination and simplistic emotions of ours, stay a fucking infant all your life

I think it is possible that "Amour" gets an best picture nomination, but it will lose against "the Untouchables" in best foreign film categorie at the Sscars . The Chances are small, but it is realistic, like 20%-30 % . The Untouchables won`t get an best picture nomination for sure . Sounds weird but it could really happen !

Whoever white-balanced (or lack thereof) this needs to be fired.

are you kidding me with this? Amour's a FABULOUS movie!

Holy shit, it's like I'm listening to a bunch of 10 year olds. Please find another career and stop wasting our time at your half-brained attempts in reviewing films.

That fucking Stupid sad cunt, Christy Lemire can choke on my cock!!!

I am 15 years old and I saw this movie with my parents, it is amazing (10/10) and we were never bored, yet this pretencious Bitch who calls herself a film critc, says it bored her shitless!!! Fuck That Bitch!! Learn to appreciate some fucking artistic cinema, you ignorant Gringo Cunt!!!

I fucking hope you get gang-raped so hard that your cunt, end up looking as fucked as your head!!!

Dumb Cunt!!!

I loved this movie and I needed to watch a serious discussion about the film by people who at least respect what they are doing...and obviously I got here by mistake..

[Graeme Harwell]

I really wasn't all that bored with the film. Haneke just brought me In on there lives until the very end. And Riva gives one of the best performances I've ever seen. 8.5

Amour deeply moved me. Emmanuelle Riva gives a great performance.

why are their eng subs in this review? and why do the eng subs make no fucking sense?? this movie was good although incredibly slow, but i think that gives you an insight into what life is like at that age , the slowest and most arty type movie ive ever seen ,and yet probably the most realistic and truthful aswell

[brandonkauds]

Such a good movie

[VitsInEnglish]

1) What would flashbacks of them younger bring to the table? 2) As Ben said, the ending is meant to be ambiguous like that.
