Dandelion (2004)

Such a frustrating disappointment

A lot of fun.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Wow, I just watched this movie for the first time and actually never heard of it before yesterday. I was amazed by this incredible work of art. I have seen Vincent Karthiser before in Another Day In Paradise, and was impressed with that performance, but this one is in another dimension. This is a beautiful but very sad movie, a hard thing to accomplish with this depth of emotion. All the lead actors are at the top of their game, and the last 10 minutes of the film are an emotional roller-coaster. I can't recommend this any more highly, I gave it 10 stars. I knew almost nothing about the story before I watched it, and within the first minute I was hooked. All I can say is, wow what a fantastic way to spend an hour and a half.

I was browsing through movies looking for a good drama when I came across this movie. It seemed like the exact kind of movie I would LOVE. Boy, was I disappointed.The movie was slow moving. Pointless scenes going on and on forever. I kept wanting to just turn it off but I had hope that it would get better. It didn't.The girl playing Danny was absolutely horrible. For one I didn't like the character and her acting just stunk!But I did enjoy the plot and the other actors were great. Just not my kind of movie.If you enjoy slow-paced bored to the bone movies than this is for you.

I absolutely loved this movie, but i understand why others did not. The script, frankly, was cheesy, but the actors were very good and I think made it very convincing. Vincent Kartheiser and Taryn Manning are adorable and it is now my officially my new favorite movie. So give it a chance! The symbolism, soundtrack, and acting in this movie make it very exceptional. I nearly cried when it became apparent that she was going to take her own life. No matter how bleak the subject matter in this movie was, however, they still managed to have a somewhat optimistic ending and I was deeply inspired at the end of the movie. I also love the title!

This movie caught me off guard at the Sundance Film Festival. This is an emotionally charged story that really lets you feel the emotion the characters are going through. The cinematography is breath taking and is simply put one of the best films shown at the festival. The acting was top notch and the directing was flawless. Make sure you see this film when it comes out. You will be in for a real treat.
