Richard Linklater's third feature -- set, like his other works, over the course of one 24-hour period -- Before Sunrise is a sweet, intelligent romantic comedy filmed primarily in Austria. It stars Ethan Hawke as Jesse, a young American travelling through Europe. On a train he meets Celine, a French student portrayed by Julie Delpy. Together they leave the train to begin exploring the city of Vienna, walking and talking into the wee hours of the night and slowly falling in love as the minutes before Jesse's return to the U.S. tick away. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi

This is a wonderful love story. Awesome dialogue. Love stories don't usually do it for me, being a single loser and all. But this movie stuck a chord with me. Just fantastic performances. I highly recommend to couples and single losers.

Let me say this right of the bat. If you are a boy you will not like it. But ifyou are a girl or a woman or perchance a man who has outgrown his tom green days you are going to love this movie. This is one of my top 10 favorite movies. Nothing much happens in it. A Man and a woman meet in the train and then spent one night roaming in the city talking about this and that. I have never had the kind of relationship where i could have this kind of conversation with my better half. But seeing this movie i could , for 2 hours, enjoy and imagine how it might have been ....

Talk, talk, talk, talk. Loquatio instead of ... These two needed to get a room before sunrise - and SHE makes that clear. A woman's movie that should've been better, maybe if more like "A Good Year" with an intelligent gal like M. Cotillard. A woman's movie, too, because this guy is signaling that he is not philosophically tuned, a difference that will lead to disaster that women seem not to realize, something HE points out. Good grief. And this review from someone who's way beyond Tom Green - and who never liked him as entertainment anyway, Hitendra. Intelligence is an attraction. Here we don't see much of that from either of them. Still, Julie Delpy is a feast for male eyes and imaginations, imaginations revealed in other of her films.
