XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
greiweclan It really is a movie masterpiece. I have never come along any comparable story and this is not the only aspect making Adams Apples my personal favorite of all time. The characters are very developed. You get a little piece of everyone's background-story so you cannot help but feel like knowing the people for a long time and so, you perfectly sympathize their changings. If i had to use one word to sum-up the movie it would be: Touching. The least thing i can say is that you will surely enjoy watching it, whether you like it's surprising plot twists or moral lessons. This is a movie that everyone needs to see. It will make you laugh, when you're not supposed to do. It will make you cry, when you shouldn't feel like doing so. It is one of the few movies, that are getting better, the more often i watch them. But still i cannot completely categorize it. All i know is, that it should be more famous than it is.10/10, my favorite movie
gandi60 Even if Adam Appel has not much to do with reality (such a wonders happens anyway). But don't forget a movie most take you with itself to its world and make you laughing or sorrowing. Adam Appel is one the most beautiful movies which could make me laughing and at the same time sorrow. It made me even one step toward believing in God. Even if I don't believe in God since I was 13 years old, this movie made me one step closer in believing God. To the People who expect to see an documentation based on scientific principals, I have to say you were in wrong cinema. Adam Appel take you to a world, which is at the same time real and fantasy. In order to see it you have to be a person having fantasy and at same time a realistic view. If you got both this propperties this would be a wonderful movie for you.
dwpollar 1st watched 5/28/2009 – 8 out of 10 (Dir- Anders Thomas Jensen): Wonderful story about a tough ex-prisoner who takes up occupancy at an urban church(probably thru some government program) that is led by a man who appears to be on the up-and-up at first. The pastor works with him on his goal to bake an apple pie from the fruit on a tree on the premises. As the story is revealed, we find out the pastor may have more problems than the violent neo-nazi whom he's trying to help recover. The prisoner finds out he has a son that is paralyzed but the pastor refuses to believe this fact and when confronted with the truth he bleeds from his ear. The local doctor informs the neo-nazi that the pastor can die if too much truth about his actual life is revealed and we find out that he also has cancer and could die anytime. This mixed-up perspective is what makes this movie so intriguing. The pacing is perfect for the story as we are presented with other characters who also live at the church(most of them placed there for comic relief) and of the course the character of the apple tree which keeps being invaded by crows. This wonderful relationship movie helps us to see that all people need help and the ex-prisoner eventually becomes the one that helps and in a way that helps him. This is a rare find of a movie and should be watched and enjoyed by anyone interested in good character development and stories.
lionel-libson-1 Until I saw this film last night, I thought that Bjork was the ultimate in significant meaninglessness. A new standard has emerged. If I didn't know the heroic role of the Danes during WWII, I'd have been less annoyed by the passive passion and empty moralizing.The Book of Job plays a role in defining the action, and might have added a powerful message about man vs. God. Unfortunately, the writer seems to have skipped the poetic climax of this scriptural story."Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?", God replies to the torment of Job. Archibald MacLeish and Tom Paine understood the magnitude of this question. Few things are as frustrating as a script that is overwhelmed by the concept it addresses.Even the "assault" on Big Oil is trivialized as a ransacking of a filling station, making victims, not of the Wealthy, but of their underpaid employees.The Director has managed to place an emotional filter between the viewer and the screen. Do we care? Is there a connection? Perhaps for those pathetic individuals who gather stoically around a traffic accident. I think I should lie down and wait for my feelings to subside.
