More whimsical than gloomy, for all the horrors it alludes to or depicts.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
What are people saying?

The New York Times by Dana Stevens
Is, in the end, a boisterous love song -- a funny valentine to London, to chaos and to human decency.

Portland Oregonian by Diana Abu-Jaber
If dissonance is your dish, you'll find Beautiful People tempting indeed.

Dizdar maintains a knife-edged balance in tone throughout the film

Dallas Observer by Gregory Weinkauf
Deftly delivered and free of gratuitous gloss, yet enormously rich in its unassuming manner.

It's a spirited and essentially optimistic film, but it's also simplistic.

TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
Equal parts soap drama and ham-fisted morality tale.

Fierce, funny and vividly moving.

Miami Herald by Rene Rodriguez
Often grim, but never nihilistic: Even at its darkest, Dizdar gives the movie an optimistic bounce. The movie is often shockingly funny, too.

It is fairly lighthearted, under the circumstances; like "Catch-22," it enjoys the paradoxes that occur when you try to apply logic to war.
