What better way to spend 97 minutes in November than trying to sort out romantic complications in shorts and sailboats? Go to Full Review

Straight ahead in form but unnerving and unexpected in content. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
All I know is, I didn't buy it. It didn't scan. And I'm sorry it didn't, because Summer '04 offers much to admire and a few things to fear. Go to Full Review
Prairie Miller NewsBlaze Jun 5, 2008
More in the nature of audience eavesdropping on some scandalous neighbors than gripping or meaningful storytelling, the film is wracked with superficial, amoral characters and petty, hand wringing sordid emotional preoccupations and obsessions. Go to Full Review

Jul 24, 2021 The driveway doesn't quite reach the garage. Good intentions though... See more Jun 14, 2013 Summer '04 is a weird little number with actors who are trying to have a good go of it but never get anywhere. There are affairs with few consequences. There are adorations of an underage girl..with few consequences or normal thought. See more Nov 18, 2010 An odd one. Liked the european awkwardness. Don't like the plot so much. See more Apr 16, 2010 Sommer '04 handles prickly subject matter with the lightness of a summer breeze.

I suppose it was psychological in that none of the characters behaved like humans I have ever met and it was somewhat thrilling to predict the next idiotic move. It was only slightly more interesting than a bad American movie because it was German. Rare to see a film where all of the male characters are inane. See more Read all reviews
