Déjà Vu

I loved Deja Vu. It's about love and magic, and being honest with yourself. Vanessa Redgrave is beautiful, and the relationships in the film are fascinating. The film made me think about my life, and the choices I've made, or have not made. I made changes in my life after seeing the film that were very good for me. This film has it all---mystery, love, humor, beauty. I saw it several times, and never got bored. Go see it, or rent it!

I must say I enjoyed this movie and I was taken by it from the first moments. It is full of wonderful characters and interesting acting. It was not replete with name actors and formula plots.

The quiet moments when the characters waxed philosophical were the best parts of the movie. It was a script that I could put my spiritual teeth in.

At first it was distracting to see Redgrave sitting among her "lessers" but as her role continued...I realized why she took the role. It spoke volumes about the central premise of fate and free will and added much to the film's story line. Plus, she delivered a marvelous performance.

(It always fascinates me when someone states that THIS is the worst movie they have ever seen. To say that about THIS movie reveals that the reviewer has not seen many movies. I have seen some alarmingly bad movies where I am cringing throughout. That is bad folks. This is not Shakespeare nor Gone With The Wind...instead...it is charming.)

Deja-vu was wonderful...a romantic movie for woman and men :)

This was one of the most romantic movies I've ever seen. The story is fascinating, beginning with the conversation at the cafe in Jerusalem with Dana and the mystery woman, through Dana's search in Paris, to the White Cliffs of Dover. To me, this movie is hope for women that there is one person out there who is truly meant for them and sometimes you are lucky enough to find that one person, as Dana was. The music was so fitting and made me weepy at times. I was really blown away at the ending, because I hadn't expected it, but it was so fitting. The final shot of the film says it all for me. Henry Jaglom and Victoria Foyt are truly the new wave of film makers and her beauty is extraordinary. As soon as the movie was over I wanted to watch it again.

Wonderful and very romantic movie that Amazon Prime Video recommended to me! The main idea of the movie is that if two people are destined to be together, there are multiple signs in their life that show they should be together. Even if they try not to be together and fight their attraction to each other (for example if they are in relationships with other people) fate will bring them together!

Dana is engaged and meets Sean who is married. Their attraction is instant, they fight it and fate keeps bringing them together. The movie is set in Jerusalem, Dover, UK, London, UK, Paris and L. A.

I liked the plot and the actors a lot. Vanessa Redgrave says something interesting to Dana who is wondering what to do with her feelings for Sean: "If you really want something and fate presents it to you, this means it's yours and you should take it. Otherwise, it wouldn't be presented to you. This is living"

I also liked the movie, because it's like virtual traveling and seeing distant places.

The message is that if you sense an instant strong romantic connection with someone and they feel it, too, you should look deeper to discover that there are many things connecting you!

Delighful ending, in my opinion and nice music.

I didn't hate this film quite as much as the reviewer before me who called it the worst film ever, but I do think it was overpraised by most critics. The idea of lovers fated to meet is a familiar one, but a timeless theme that is always worth retelling --if you can do it in an original and compelling way. The problem with Deja Vu is that rather than allow a story to unfold naturally, the characters constantly talk and analyze the subject. They talk so much about love and coincidence that I could not really get into it.There are some good performances -Vanessa Redgrave is always a pleasure to watch-- but the main character (I forget her name, but she is the director's wife --as the last reviewer pointed out, a reason to be wary) was too whiny and silly for me. I think some reviewers are so grateful when a film is about something serious that they are too willing to overlook flaws. As any beginning book on writing says --"show, don't tell." Deja Vu tells way too much.
