It is no doubt a good movie. Well acted. Funny at times. Nice cinematography. I am stunned, though, by the amount of high praises it has received. 10 out 10? Best movie of 2003? Greatest love story? Far from it. How many movies have these people been watching to come to such conclusion? If you enjoyed 'Lost in Translation' you should see 'In the Mood for Love' - a much better movie.
