Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

seronjaa-797-313124 The first thing I noticed about this movie were the close ups. First they were irritating, but as the movie progressed they really added to the intimate and personal atmosphere in this movie. Even though the movie was long, I wasn't bored. It was very realistic and I think many people can relate to it. We were all once confused teenagers and fell in love, got our hearts broken and so on. What I didn't like about this movie is the incomplete storyline. The love story is purely physical. But I think that at this young age (and often later in life) most people are not aware if they're in such a relationship.

Candice Bergam A film with so much feeling, love, rejection, happiness and sadness. A story that boils with passion and makes my heart thump, wishing I could be the one to fall in love. This film captures a rawness that makes it such a cinematic experience and sadly foreign to American film. It makes me day dream again thank you Abdellatif Keckiche for an amazing film.

Jacqueline Hester ...Because this lesbian porno center in some basic LGBT-coming-of- age story is artfully dull and beautifully unoriginal. I was full of uninterested cringe in between subtle moments of reality, before full on laughing at a bad sex scene that showed awkwardness, rushing, and lack of awareness catered not to lesbians, but straight men. I've actual lesbian porn based in more realism than that 7 minutes of gasping, ass smacking, and borderline painful boob squeezing. And after reading the actresses complaints, I could see that being captured.Anyway, spoiler/trope alert: it's another lesbian film where the women don't end up together because LGBT movies are apparently scripted to be dramatic shots filled with sex, cheating, romance based on lust only, and settling for someone else because communication is for chumps. Long story short: it's an okay art piece that hit all the right buttons for people new to LGBT films, but those buttons are overly pushed and obnoxious with nothing gained nor lost in terms of originality. It felt forced and aiming less for LGBT exposure and more "look at these women finger each other for ROMANCE".

paul2001sw-1 There's a lot to like about 'Blue is the Warmest Colour', a lengthy drama about an ultimately failed (lesbian) relationship, for a start, lots of beautiful young Frenchwomen, smoking cigarettes and looking cool. More seriously, the film really practices "show not tell", allowing us to get a real feel for its characters' lives and the subtlety of the dynamic of their interaction. Oddly, this is not (to me) a "gay" movie, in that it's a film about two people who find each other attractive, and to inexperienced Adele, it's a very particular wonder, which I liked - not everyone feels that "gay" or "straight" is a category by which they care to be identified, that you necessarily have something in common with those whose sexual orientation you share. Likewise, the relationship ends for very particular reasons, due to differences in need and social class (in this case, between the middle middle class and a certain affluent pseudo-Bohemia). Finally, the sex scenes are beautifully lit and acted.But - it is a lengthy drama. The repeated scenes where we see Adele teaching tell us about the passage of time, and her current state of ambition and mind - but sometimes the viewer is left wondering if the director couldn't have found a trick, to convey this information in a more compact way. The sex scenes aren't just porn - they offer great insight into the characters - but again they're very long. And perhaps my sympathy for this indulgence of the protagonists was lessened by the fact that they seem to both have plenty of advantages - in good looks, in family background, in a talent for what they do. We see how Adele is shattered by the break-up; but it's hard to believe she won't get over it. Ultimately, however, these are quibbles compared with what the film does well. Set aside sufficient time, and you'll enjoy it.
