Striking artwork, but too much text. I'll rent it.
I don't like the artwork, but I have been dying to see this for about a year now. If I can't get it via Netflix, it's a blind buy at some point. I love Almodovar films!
Quite a good film. A little annoyed that the Academy ignored it this year but still worth a view for sure.
Picked up the UK release yesterday, but have been too busy to check it out. I wish Volver had a UK BD release.
Great film, I was about to pull the trigger on the UK Release, but I'll pick this release up instead.
Might give this a rental.
Better than VOLVER... but not as much as TALK TO HER.
Definitely want to see this one.
Not Almodovar's best, but still quite good. Visually sumptuous and a great performance by Cruz.
This one is still playing at the theater near me. I need to go watch it. Almodovar rarely lets me down.
