A keenly observed slice of life paired with some contemplative poetic imagery. Slows to a snail's pace at times, but Juliette Binoche is wonderful as always.

You know, with the right cuts and a change of music, this could be quite the scary thriller/suspense film. "Red Balloon has only one thought on its mind, revenge on the boy that let him go. No matter where he runs, Red Balloon is just a whisper away. Taking a nap, Red Balloon is peering through the window, think the train is a safe bet, Red Balloon is waiting at the next stop. Red Balloon is out for blood, and nothing will stop Red Balloon."

Juliette Binoche gave a great performance as a single mother here and the film has more to it for those willing to watch carefully and make their own interpretations. However, what it doesn't offer, is entertainment - after leaving the cinema, I was too tired and bored to think much about it, which makes all the subtleties go amiss. Sadly, much of this fatigue came from the cinematography - a lot of shots obscuring the characters introduce a feeling of discomfort without apparent reason.
