Elegant but Vague

Rating: 5/10 (28 February 2002)

Despite its elegance, beauty, and the talent of its star, Juliette Binoche, "Blue" disappointed me. It never gained any forward momentum that I could discern. Scene after (slow) scene went by without either telling me much more about Binoche's character or making me care very much about her. She was simply a repressed sad woman. Maybe it's me but I cannot recommend this movie; 5 of 10, and that only because of Binoche's performance.
