This movie tries hard to be quirky and surreal without succeeding and instead falls flat on its face from scene 1. The story is very weak, all the time going into supposedly funny and surreal directions, seemingly due to a lack of plot. The characters are unengaging and uninteresting, and the funny bits aren't funny. It is beautifully shot, but this doesn't help when there is absolutely no meaning to it all. The point that you won't find love until you stop looking so hard for it is hammered in from the very beginning, and gets tiring and annoying. The similarities to Amélie (which I loved) are obvious, but where that movie was genuinely fun and heart-warming this movie just feels contrived.
