Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 7.5/10 --
While The We and the I is visually more grounded in reality than most of Gondry's famous works, it's still incredibly colorful and striking. Virtually the entirety of the film takes place inside the bus, with the illusion of real time.

All of the kids are good in their roles, mostly as characters one assumes resemble themselves. And as any actor will tell you, playing yourself is one of the toughest gigs around.

Gondry has talent, and I think he enjoyed being with these youngsters, but the film suffers in trying to impose something vaguely like a story on a framework that boils down to teen high jinks during a bus ride.

Rating: 2/4 --
Organic interactions are interrupted by Gondry's words, or abandoned in favor of fantasy sequences. The film's verisimilitude too often takes a backseat to conventional storytelling and Gondry's whimsical aesthetic.

Gondry is like a DJ scratching a record. He puts his own touches to the sound of the Bronx while staying true to its beat.
