MICMACS





Id heard alot of negative comments about Jean-Pierre Jeunet's new film 'micmacs'. I love 'Amelie' and I knew his new film could never match that charm and sweetness.
But I was taken aback by how quirky and clever 'micmacs' was!  he drops these wonderful ideas then leaves us to ponder- he doesnt milk them or return to them like most films would. he has so much to say and show. the characters are bizarre and mechanical and endearing. I love the ideas of recycling. and the possiilities of reusing and redicovering. The dreamy green hues, ridiculous logic and power to the outsider ideas= this film made my night. The explosive scene was my favourite, which is so unlike me. It was beautiful
