Summary: my favorite
Comment: I first saw this movie 8 years ago when it was released in America. I has been my favorite film ever since. I watch it every year. The themativ development is the best I have ever seen. The quality of the themes and the variety of themes explored within the film is greater than in any other movie I have seen. The juxtaposition of pain and joy, fear and humor is done masterfully. There are few human emotions and great literary themes not explored masterfully in this film.

Summary: Be prepared
Comment: I read the reviews on this movie here and elsewhere before watching it, and I want to make a few qualifications to the generally glowing report. While I agree that the film is at times delightfully amusing and often philosophically humorous, I found the ending far more than simply "surprising," as many reviewers have reported it. There is an almost sadistic quality to the "surprise" for which I was not prepared and wished fervently that I had been. Train de Vie has been compared repeatedly with Life is Beautiful, and while components of the two films certainly correspond, the feel and philosophical message of each film differs greatly. The movie has many good elements, but as an emotionally engaged viewer, I found the ending betraying.

Summary: Train of Live -- VHS tape
Comment: Tape is in good condition, however it was not advertised as a rental tape (had a Blockbuster sticker on it when received).
Customer Rating:
Summary: Romanians at their best
Comment: without being biased (since I'm Romanian) I have to admit that the movie is simply great! the comic part just wants to shift the accent from the extremely sad situation to a rather pleasent occuring... all the twists and turns give the movie its capability to keep you seated until you see what happened to them. like many other European movies it is a greatly phylosophical movie as well and it is far from the ordinary comercial movies that bring in the money for box offices.
the actors are great. the picture is also amazing...
WATCH IT!

Summary: Life-enhancing, thought-provoking, true.
Comment: This wonderful movie has unfortunately slipped through the cracks, which is a great pity, since it is a sensitive film about a very difficult subject. A film that stays with you for the rest of your life.
