lexva5 This film is a very good adaption of the French film L Appartement. Actually the Hollywood version is an improvement of the original. In Wicker Park the main characters as played by Josh Hartnett, Diane Krueger, Rose Byrne and Matthew Lillard are likable despite their double life or shortcomings which they might be harbouring. One actually cares about the characters and the intriguing story which is told partially in flashback, unlike the French film where the characters all seemed to be Jerks. The way the film progresses, reflects the disjointed mind of the main protagonists as some sort of misfortune seems to keep the two main lovers apart whilst a second romance continuously fails to materialize. This film and the original French one apparently are a loose adaption of the Shakespeare comedy a Midsummer's Night dream. The French film is certainly not a comedy but this one is imbued with a certain lightheartedness despite the proceedings, that makes it very palpable. A recommended watch, characters continue to live on after the film ends

Wuchak Released in 2004, "Wicker Park" is a drama/mystery/romance about a young Chicago advertising executive (Josh Hartnett) who falls in love at first sight with a woman (Diane Kruger), which leads to a growing relationship that abruptly ends. Meanwhile his best friend (Matthew Lillard) starts dating a woman (Rose Byrne) who is more – or less – than what she appears. Jessica Paré and Christopher Cousins have small roles. This is an extremely well-made movie with a "hip," kinetic flair, but a convoluted, non-linear story that makes your head spin. While it's not as effective as other non-linear movies, like 1994's "Pulp Fiction," the last act ties everything together and is pretty impressive, but it's almost tiresome till then, although things perk up when Rose Byrne appears early in the second act. Anyway, it's just mind-boggling to think of all the details the filmmakers had to keep track of to put the story together and make it make sense in the end. The movie explores the "love at first sight" phenomenon and the crazy things love or obsession make people do. The film runs 114 minutes and was shot in Chicago, Montreal and New York City. GRADE: B-

Subith Premdas First time I watched this movie, I slept off. I couldn't understand what was going on. It was too boring. But some days later, on a very lousy day, I had nothing to do. Then I thought I'd give this movie another try. It was still the same. I didn't understand what was going on in the first 1 hour or so. Then the mystery started unfolding one by one. Some shots in the first half were shown again, but this time from a different angle which reveals quite a few things. Then some flash backs. All of these will make you seated on your chair till the end. And a special mention of the climax scene. It is gonna give you goose bumps for sure.So my advise. You may feel bored or sleepy in the first 1 hour. But all you need is a little bit of patience. Wait for the second half to reveal things out. Then you will realize the purpose of those boring scenes in the first half.
