Maze (2001)

Memorable, crazy movie

Good concept, poorly executed.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I just watched this peace of art in my living room on a LCD, and a movie with Laura Linney is always some kind of a wonderful experience. The story is touching, Rob Morrow is superb, Craig Sheffer intense as ever. Humor is here, great performing is here. The relationships are profound, you really get in tune with a deceased painter that wants to live a life out of the blue, that can love just anybody else but is afraid to tell. This is sweet cinema as a maze of passion can be. As I read: can a man and a woman remain just friends? Can two friends remain like so when a woman comes in? If you want your life changed for a 100 minutes go grab it right away.

I just recently discovered this wonderful movie. I love movies that make me laugh and cry.Rob Morrow was so believable in his role. I will probably watch this movie over and over. We need more movies like this-people movies.I was so impressed with the storyline, the acting was terrific, I can't believe I haven't found it until now, but it made my whole day and I'll be passing it on to everyone I know who likes good movies. I also loved the soundtrack and have looked all over for it, and I cannot find it anywhere. If someone knows where I can get it or have one to sell, please contact me. I collect soundtracks and would like to add this one to my collection. Thanks.

I've seen a lot movies in my life, but I must say Maze is the first one where really everything is exactly like I want it to be. It's so perfect. The story, the actors, the camera, the settings, the music... It's just one big wonderful feeling. I even think it's not necessary to summarize the story here because it's not the story which makes that film so great. It's the thing between Lyle and Callie. My English is not good enough to describe it (I'm from Germany). It's how they treat each other, the way they are with each other, how they look at each other (they almost don't need to talk, you know everything when you look into their faces, especially Lyle's longing for Callie, it's acted so good, you fall in love with her, too) and all these little things between the lines. That's why I can watch it again and again without being bored, because it carries a feeling, a mood, a state of mind, don't know how to tell... Watching this movie is like listening to your favorite music or watching a painting which really caught you, or sitting in the dark and watching the stars, like the feeling, when you come home in the winter and drink a cup of tea and you can feel it running slowly down your throat into your stomach and balley. Art is, what touches your soul. Maze is art. And please, it is not a movie about Tourette! If one reduces it to that, he hasn't understood one little thing. It's just one part. It's about love and how difficult it can be to find it, and especially if you don't serve common sense. I know what I'm talking about, it's always the same, no matter why you stay outside of the crowed. Maze gives hope and courage. Don't know how someone could create such a good movie... Thanks a lot to Rob Morrow and crew! Want more! Now I think I've subbed enough... :-) I love it!

At first the Tourette's Syndrome symptoms were so disconcerting and disturbing to me, that I couldn't concentrate on the story, but once I got past that (and I can't even pinpoint where in the movie that occurred), I thought the movie was very well done, the story and the acting, and thought Rob Morrow was excellent as were many of the others. I would suggest though, that it would be a good idea to do a little research on Tourette's Disease, before you see the movie, in order to better understand what the main character is going through.
