never went crazy over it the first time i saw it on the theater. now i have to watch it at least once a week. must admit one of the most overrated movies in 2003, critics applauded it, and people were expecting a "groundbreaking" film, a main reason why the general public hated it. but i hold it as one of those gems. a great movie that understands how it is to be lonely and out of place.

    This a one of those movies I want to see but also in no big hurry to get around to it. On the other hand I watch Groundhog Day anytime it's on and owning the DVD is in the near future.

    Oh I love Lost in Translation. The first time I watched it I thought about it for 3 days afterwards. I found it really affecting, still do actually, but I think it's one of those movies you love or hate. My boss hates it, but then I think he was expecting Bill Murray funny, and it wasn't that kind of a film (though he was funny - Oh Mr Harris! Lip my stockings)

    I missed it when it first came out, but later I watched it on TV; two or three times. I like the film, but it is not amongst my absolute favourites.

    yes i agree it's not for everyone. my mom absolutely hated it. on the other hand my friends, whom I expected negative reactions from, loved it and laughed when they saw it. of course they didn't agree with that whisper thing but overall they said it was ok.
