This movie is about a young girl Amelie who works at a small coffee shop. She is shy but she tries to help people around her--she helps her dad, her neighbor, and the boy at the fruit shop. But then she met a guy and had a secret crush on him. So she decided to meet him in an unique way. Amelie is probably one of the most unique movie I've ever seen so I don't know how to feel about it. The storyline is kind of vague compare to any other classical films, since the movie is consisted of different parts of stories. I usually prefer an in-order storyline with a rather clear goal rather than jumping around in different stories. For me, I need a clear main plot and a quest. During the movie, I just wanted it to be focused on one thing, which would be Amelie met a mysterious guy at the train station collecting other people's photos. Other stories I didn't care that much, they just felt like they are in the way. Maybe it's just because I am not a romantic person. However I have to say Amelie is an easy and heartwarming movie to watch. One of the review says this is the movie equivalent of a hug. I couldn't agree more. It makes you smile. Although the parts of stories bother me, every single one of them is worthy to fall for. And I ask a lot for visual experiences. Amelie does have a beautiful framework. (Although the poster looks horrible, I didn't watch it for so long was because of the poster.) Rating: 7/10
