Watched this for the first time since it came out. Still a lovely and enjoyable film, but it struck me how much less critical the film is of the encroachment of mass culture than the comics and screenplay. Still love it.

What a sad, sad story. I loved Thora Birch's very raw performance. Excellent film.

Absolute perfect film for me, it just really spoke to me,I'm glad this movie exists because I am not alone in feeling the same way Enid does. Great cast, great story and great director, can't say enough good things about this film.

-contains spoilers- The metaphor of Norman's departure with the bus is purely touching as it makes Enid (as well as the audience) realize that a period in her life was over. However, i believe the film shouldn't have ended with the same metaphor being used for Enid. There's no need to repeat yourself even though it's a stroke of genius. Besides this, excellent film.. brilliant mixture of dram and humour.

never has Scarlett Johansson's voice sounded as sultry as it did in this film...

A lot better than I thought it would be. Very sharp with some stellar performances

Like my own personal Christmas Carol when I first watched it, this gave me Enid as a scarily accurate portrayal of myself circa high school graduation and with Seymour one definite possible future for me. Outside of it being personally the closest thing to me on film, I think this is excellent all round from the witty, dramatically compelling script to the superb tone Zwigoff creates. A classic.

Whatever happened to Thora Birch? Was seeing Alaska and making a mental bridge toward miss Johansson a dude of sorts of Thora's and thinking to myself: "one became the most big of superstars and the other kinda withered away into oblivion. How unfair is life? ". Pretty odd film. The characters are not likable or empathetic at all. I mean one could relate a tad but they're so mean. Seems like Solondz would like this.

Rebecca: Should we leave a note? Enid: Yeah, you got a pen? [Rebecca pulls out a pen, Enid takes a tag left on Josh’s door handle and writes on it, leaning on Rebecca’s back] Enid: [writing] Dear Josh, we came by to fuck you, but you were not home. Therefore you are gay. Signed Tiffany and Amber.

Ouaiiiis, c'était pas mal. J'adhère moyen au concept des meufs à la Daria, et tout ça, mais les p'tites modifications apportées au stéréotype sont sympas. Et comme toujours Steve Buscemi, ce dieu vivant.

gorgeously written, delicate, totally hilarious. A haunting film with great depth, sincere humour, and the such delightful, tragic characters, every one of who adding to the film in one way or another. I would recommend this to anybody I like (and do my best to keep those I dislike as far away from it as possible).

I had high expectations for this and was let down, hard. I made it through 1:20/1:50 of this movie and turned it off. I didn't expect it to get any better. the only thing I liked was: Steve Buscemi, Scarlett Johansson's cuteness & Thora Birch's outfits.

Sorprendentemente buena. Lenguaje metadiscursivo sobre la validez artística del lenguaje cómic, una simbología (si bien un poco estrecha) clara y dicotómica en los personajes de Rebecca y Seymour, y, en general, una película realmente con algo qué decir. Super recomendable coming of age movie.

I was surprisingly drawn into this story. Steve Buscemi is brilliant as always and the rest of the cast is great. Not sure if I loved the ending but I guess I'll need some more time to reflect on the film as a whole.

It's alright, but the comic is is a hundred times better.

I saw this for the first time when I was twelve. It pretty much changed my view of "being different". But as the years go by, I now realize that this movie no longer appeals to me. But I guess that's how it is with films you loved as a pre-teen? Love Birch & Johansson in this, 'thou.

My love for this film is limitless. It presents this frustration, apathy and weariness from the world in such a way that its less contrived than the words I just used to describe this film. *sniff, sniff*
