    I have not gotten to see Perfume yet but I'm dieing to... I just downloaded the soundtrack and its amazing, and the screenshots and promo from the movie look great. Really visually stunning. The official site is really cool if anyone wants to go take a look. There's some giant pan shots you can navigate through.

    My friends tell me it's really worth seeing... But that its long.

    Has anyone seen it yet? I'm also thinking about reading the book.

    Yes, I've seen it some months ago... and I didn't like it :|
    It's a strange movie, strange photography, strange direction, and off course, strange story. But even if I like strange movies, I didn't like this... it's... too much surreal! And I don't like the concept... maybe me and the author of the story are too much different^^"
    I didn't read the book, but most of people were enthusiastic. I think that maybe you should read the book first, so you can see if you like the story!
    However I think it's one of those things that you love or you hate :p

    XD

    But it takes longer to read a book than to watch a movie. Wouldn't it be better to see it first to get the gist of it, then read it if I liked it?

    Interesting though.

    Uhm yes, but if you watch the movie first, maybe you'll don't like it :p 'cause you couldn't understand the concept of the story... I've said you, it's a very strange story!

    Judgeing by the perviews it doesn't so much look strange... Just morbid.

    Uhm... I don't know what meaning give you to the word "morbid" ^^" However for me there are some scenes very unpleasant and at times profane... but it's the story!
    However the protagonist actor is really good! ;)

    .. Isn't that the point?

    I don't think anyone is going to see the film expecting flowers and butterflies.
