    I am a foreign/art movie lover, but this was too slow and dragged out, even for me. Painfully long, could have been an hour shorter. Had a bit more energy and a few interesting lines in the last half hour, but by then I had little interest in the characters, who hadn't done much but smoke dope up til then. (Was tempted to walk out, like many in the theatre, NYC Cinema Village, did. ) Maybe that was the point of the movie...?… Expand

    Regular Lovers evokes the '60s pretty well just through dialogue and rhythm -- better, in fact, than Bernardo Bertolucci's more reverently detailed "The Dreamers." However, the film's slow tempo induces the feeling one is living through the whole of 1968 in one sitting.

    Austere, underlit, uncompromisingly lackadaisical at three hours, and anachronistic in a half dozen ways.

    A magical and supernally beautiful meditative drug-trip head-space picture (a full-fledged ZZM, q.v. above) for which all Euro-film masochists should rearrange their schedules. It'll be out on DVD soon, and that's great. But Garrel's films are almost never seen on the big screen, and this one's worth it.
