Classic Jarmusch 21 May 2007
Format:DVD
Funny, beautifully filmed in black and white, and a little eccentric. Don't expect plot, it's a quiet pondering film with no real direction. The point isn't where it takes you but to enjoy travelling with it. It may not convert anyone who isn't already a Jarmusch fan but it should entertain arthouse and indie enthusiasts.

Definitely worth buying if only for the conversation between Tom Waits and Iggy Pop.

Great Film 23 July 2005
Format:DVD
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Yes, it's a bit weird. OK, so it's not a mainstream film but then many of JJs film's aren't that mainstream. The vignettes are intricate, amusing and fascinating and often leave you wondering whether they are completely scripted or totally off-the-cuff or somewhere in between.

They have this mesmerising effect of making you feel like you are prying on the private lives of the characters in the film. Since some of them are stars in their own (non-Hollywood) right, such as Iggy Pop / Tom Waits / The White Stripes / RZA / GZA, it's as if they are giving us an insight into what they are really like when they are off stage that acting out the scenes can't quite hide.

I particularly liked the Cate Blanchett and Cate Blanchett cousins scene - I really did think they were different people for a long while. Bill Murray was brilliant and I still chuckle at Tom Waits' petulant "So you think I need drumming lessons?" to Iggy. And the Steve Coogan / Alfred Molena interlude was hilarious.

In short, it's a great film with no explosions. Put the kettle on , light a ciggy and quit griping about it being in black and white.

Left Me Speechless 2 Dec 2005
Format:DVD
Not being a big film person, I had no idea whatsoever to expect from "Coffee and Cigarettes." However, after the very first scene I knew I was going to love this movie.

Extremely arty and beautifully filmed, this DVD follows several conversations between groups of people which, although are completely unrelated, all share the common interest - Coffee and Cigarettes. In some cases the conversations go absolutely nowhere, and the setting changes only very slightly from scene to scene. So, if you're looking for some thrilling, emotional drama, with various beautiful film locations, this may not be the film for you.

It's funny, artistic, minimalistic, and left me spell-bound. OH, and the cast are FANTASTIC!

Great
Surely a great movie, a lot of great actors. I just wonder how much did M... paid to get its brand name displayed so long in the episode with Tom Waits. Read more

Beautiful. Funny. Surprisingly powerful.
To start out with, this is not an action film. There are no thrills, car chases or explosions. Nor is it a film with any narrative as such. Read more

A series of comedic sketches, filmed in arty black and white and revolving around the subject of coffee and cigarettes, some more successfully than others. Read more

Pretentious, moi?
Intrigued by the concept and cast list, but ultimately disappointed by 95 minutes of dull, self-absorbed, pretentious drivel.

Film of the year contender
This series of sketches quickly turns into a celebration not just of the coffee and cigarette break, but of conversation, its weirdness and power play. Read more

Weak - in dire need of a caffeine shot!
It's not often I get the desire to walk out of the cinema when I'm watching a film, but that's exactly how I felt about 15 minutes after this film began. Read more
