In his solo effort, Jeunet puts aside the darkly humorous sensibility of his previous films (Delicatessen, co-directed with Caro)in the service of a sweet but toothless (and sexless) romantic comedy that's bound to make lead Audrey Tautou a star.

Charms with its breezy, stylized storytelling [and] the wide eyes and breathless expression of Audrey Tautou… liabilities include a slightly dragged-out resolution and a rather amoral view of sexuality.

While this is generally the kind of overly-whimsical, light-hearted yet pretentious, foreign art-house crapola I tend to avoid, I gotta say this was pretty good

Tautou's inherent charm, garnished with a gaze of innocent sexuality, lends the character of Amélie the perfect recipe for audiences to take her to their collective hearts.
