★★★★ Volver (2006)

[Gino: 3.5, TwoShoes: 4.0]

Gino says: "Mine is an affectionate 3.5. Honestly, I might have given it less because it took about 80% of the film to go by before it sort of grew on me, but at that point, it felt like going through a good experience. Story is pleasantly rambling while never losing focus entirely. I particularly like how Penelope Cruz's character was supposed to be sort of down-and-out a bit but was always perfectly stylishly dressed, never repeating outfits, and everyone had beautifully painted and adorned apartments, etc. In related news, we are moving to Spain soon, so I will be registering the domain: www.cinemojo.es."
