the best movie of the year

Rating: Null/10 (27 November 2001)

I had to see this movie for extra credit in my English class. To be quite honest I wasn't sure what to expect. I paid my 5.50, and luckily it was not wasted. Mulholland Drive was very captivating from the first frame to the last. I still can't stop thinking about the plot, and still haven't been able to make sense of the story. Does it all make sense? No. But then again why should it have to? There are so many different angles, the viewer is really just free to pick one. I think that's what makes watching this movie so entertaining. It's a mystery unlike any other. I have to give it a 9 out of 10 stars because unlike most movies today, you actually go away from this one thinking about it for hours or days. My interpretation is that this was Camella's fantasy as she recovered from amnesia and realized what she had done to Dianne. If you like something different from standard Hollywood garbage, go see it. The characters are unforgettable. If you've never seen a Lynch film before, this will get you hooked. For much of the film I felt uncomfortable. Don't try to figure it all out at once. At the end of this movie I knew I liked it but I wasn't sure how much. So enjoy the film and then go home get some food or whatever, and think about it later. That's what I did, and after debating whether or not I liked the movie I decided that I enjoyed the film a great deal. Overall, I found the movie to be interesting, and certainly worth seeing. I love this movie. Don't miss any scene because the movie is bizarre and crazy but you will leave the movie house feeling great! A great film possibly my favorite of this year.
