A man sees his fortune dwindle after his wife develops a strange condition requiring that she be always surrounded by fresh flowers, or she will die.

Critics Consensus

Mood Indigo is far from Michel Gondry's most compelling work, but it doesn't skimp on the visual whimsy and heartfelt emotion fans have come to expect.

C-

It's a mildly interesting romance portrayed by two solid actors that is largely overshadowed by its gimmicky effects.

Gondry has such an incomparable understanding of the way in which strange and unexpected sights can tickle you. What he sometimes lacks as a filmmaker is the awareness that he can tickle an audience to death.

2.5/4

Mood Indigo paints a depressing picture about romance but does so with fabulous, although often-exhausting, style.

3/5

Gondry’s stylistic excesses hurt the film but they don’t hurt the performances.

2.5/5

Michel Gondry's seventh film is visually inventive but a self-indulgent mess of ideas...

Gondry's film captures some of the spirit of the novel. It will not be everyone's cup of tea, or even half-cup, but Mood Indigo is empathetic and amusing, and it is a pleasure to watch.

It was weird and broke many rules. A movie that didn't explain it self or care about the audience it seemed. Refreshing, silly, deeply felt work of artistic sideways thinking, setting and quirk. Wondrous. One of my all time favourite movies from the first scene.

Mesmerizing. It seemed like a remake of Tatou's "Amelie", at first, but then went in a very different place. The use of music to carry the theme and action seduced me.

I was quite excited to watch this. When it started I thought, "oh its a charming quirky dream sequence" but it just went on for 94 minutes like this. Its very imaginative but for me, the style was just too frantic for a whole film.
