 Mesmerizing
You'll see the trademark directing style of David Lynch (ala Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks). Just when you think you've got it figured out it takes another twist and keeps you guessing. Hot love scene too!

 a "must own" movie
I didn't know many af Davids movies other than "Lost Highway" before I bought "Mulholland Drive". Surely a strange movie which you have to see more than once to fully understand. This is a part of the reason that you just have to own this movie - you'll get many hours of great intertainment and something to think about! Great visuals too ;)

 Lynching noir
Mulholland Drive marks a virtuoso return to the dark and dank underbelly of America for David Lynch after the milder Straight Story. Essentially a feminist spin on his psychological fugue masterpiece Lost Highway, MD offers noirish subterfuge filtered through the dystopic lense of the Blue Velvet auteur. Performance is of a higher standard than the norm for Lynch: Naomi Watts is electrifying in her dual role and stakes a claim for future stardom. As this is an embellished television pilot, those expecting Twin Peaks kookiness and mythos will find the former petering out halfway through and the latter frustrated by the essential deconstruction of the world we are presented with in the first act. As Lynch's patented brand of aesthetic nihilism takes hold and we descend into the hellish depths of a suicidal mind, the greater the pathos and the fear. Oh and there are teeny, tiny old people... If you find yourself asking "Wha...?" you missed the point, and if you can stomach another sitting then the film is enriched and deepened and you just may realise that you should let it wash over you - there is nothing to "get". Superb. And by the way, there's a really erotic lesbian lovescene!

 Horrible ending, meaningless plot
Whoever said this movie has meaning is an idiot. I enjoyed watching this movie, but when the plot became more and more absurd and finally led up to nothing more than a fart, I decided it was a waste of my time. Absolutely stupid ending that leaves you hanging. I thought everything would be explained and would make sense when I got to the end of the film, but no, it makes no sense and is supposed to be based on a dream or something. Total waste of your time, don't watch it.

 A very different Lynch Masterpiece
This movie is an incredible expeience, everyting about it is mesmerising, tantalizing, cryptic, and very beautiful at the same time, the amount of in depth detail Lynch gives to the story is utterly mindblowing. If you like headtrips with meaning, this movie is for you
