    Great movie. Very different from the typical hollywood flare, thought-provoking (although less-intelligent people won`t get it) and well acted and directed.

    This movie was really bad. All you people claiming, "oh my gosh, it was brillant, awesome shots, amazing music, etc." need to get a life. People don`t go to movies to watch interesting film shots or listen to slow paced music. it didn`t have a good plot, the story line was basically conflict and there was absolutely no resolution. i think this should have been one of those movies that doesn`t get put in the theatre and just gets put in the rentals. what a waste. damn all the artsy freaks that give it higher ratings.

    This is one of those movies in which you have to talk with the people you saw the movie with, to try and figure out what happened. There is no clearcut answers, only your interpretation... I like these types of movies. If you are the type who doesn`t want to think about your movies, and want a solid yes/no black/white ending, you will likely hate this movie. Criticism: Yes, there were too many long scenes focused on people`s faces, etc. My interpretation: Sean really was Sean. Sean gives up on pursuing Anna at the end of the movie, realizing how much he is hurting her, or has hurt her in his last lifetime by his actions. He tells he

    I`ve seen some bad movies but this one is by far the worst. I hung with it hoping it would finally make sense. What a mistake that was! As bad as the story line was, the lapses between conversations were maddening. If I were in a conversation with a person that took that long to respond, I would think they didn`t hear me, didn`t understand, spoke a different language, or had an extremely slow thought process.

    Birth was strangely different, not what I expected. Nicole gives a very good performance but the movie lacks something. It was not one of my favorite Nicole movies and I did not care for the ending it seemed unfinished.

    You`ll either love it or hate it. It`s one of those movies that you just have to take the chance on.

    Birth is an exploration of love: what a person feels and how love commands a person`s life. It shows how love leads us to overcome all known limits. The sad side is the fragility and and irreconcilability of reality against one`s feelings. The movie is an excellent manifestation of a very difficult subject. I give it two thumbs up.

    I fully understood the premise of the story but it made me cringe at the sexual undertones between the 10 year old boy and the woman in her thirties. The movie also moved at a very slow pace and tried to hard to be artsy. All in all, I think that this movie was pretentious, uneventful, and not well thought out.

    The ending threw me off --- what was up with the beach scene? Did I miss something?
