5.0 out of 5 stars Best Indie film EVER! 19 Jun 2009
By tamsin
Format:DVD
I found this film randomly online and was a little put off by the title and the synopsis. This film really isn't epic and if you are looking for a film where you will be like WOW then I suggest looking elsewhere. the thing about Flakes is it is one of those films with amazing character development, not to mention a cast of amazingly talented actors and some freaking awesome music. I remember watching this for the first time and by the time it had finished I was convinced that owning a random little indie shop would be the thing to do, of course it isn't but that is because the characters are so awesome and played so well. It is my all time favourite film.

In saying this though I think it really is for a certain taste because I have shown this film to a couple of other people and a few have hated it and a few have thought it was cool. But if you just want a fun film with cool characters I highly recomend it!

4.0 out of 5 stars "Like We're In Church Right Now" ~ Cereal And Religion 2 Aug 2008
By Brian E. Erland - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Think of the film `Flakes' (`07) as an undated, more hip version of the now defunct but still popular, long running television series `Cheers' only with a vast and varied cereal menu rather than alcoholic beverages. Join store manager Neil Downs (Aaron Stanford) girlfriend Pussy Katz (Zooey Deschanel), owner Willie (Christopher Lloyd) and a zany group of New Orleans residents as they gather daily for a bowl of their favorite cereal.

The shop is but a launching pad for a pithy, intelligent, romantic comedy, coming of age storyline that I enjoyed immensely. `Flakes' only shortcoming is the finish. Which isn't necessarily bad, but I just don't think it quite lives up to what preceded it.

This one will stand up well to repeat viewings, which ultimately is the supreme test for any film. Enjoy!

4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful 10 May 2008
By E. Karasik - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
"High Fidelity" meets "Clerks" over a bowl of cereal in this fun little film that rises above its humble subject. I just love the outlandish central conceit of a vintage cereal restaurant, in which the cereal becomes a metaphor for our youthful, untarnished, and yet dysfunctional selves. With a witty, intelligent screenplay and a seriously good cast, it starts out incredibly strong and as quirky as they come (in a good way). I only gave four stars because for me the second half of the film lost its unique flavor and became more of a cliche, but I still think it rocks.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute little foul-mouthed Romantic Comedy 6 May 2009
By C. C. Gullo - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
"Zooey Deschnel CAN do no wrong", touts the DVD jewel book. He's right, she's always delightful and is great in this rock-bottom bugeted film. The lead who is a manager in a cereal resturant (eh, any "Mr. Wonderful's Surprise"? my favorite long defunct cereal from the 1970's) is very good as well. Chris LLoyd is very good as an aging hippie who owns "FLAKES".
A neo-yuppie opens a competitive carbon-copy store across the New Orleans street and the drama ensues. Well-written, quirky and funny movie. Highly recommended.
