I thought I'd be imune from the hype but once it gets to you, it is impossible to ignore. It's 'unavailable' and that's what keeps you coming back for more -- a very astute piece of marketing.The cinematography, artwork and direction are masterly. The CGI is excellent and advances computer SFX more than any film to date.The esoteric questions asked by this title rival Bergman at his most phlegmatic: for instance, how temporary is 'temporarily'? Scary stuff.If you see no other movie in your lifetime, catch this one! It's that good.

Still, at least it's better than 'Revolver'

this is the best film I've not seen yet!
Michael Winner from Nowhere Man , 07/01/2005
This film is a dull piece of nothingness,There is no plot, the story goes nowhere,The acting is empty and as for the ending!!!!!!!!!!!I was left feeling I had been conned.

I found this film to be literally unwatchable. Perhaps at some point in the future I might be able to try viewing it again, but for the moment there is no place for it on my DVD shelf.
Christopher McReviewer from St.Helens, England , 30/11/2004
The pure brilliance of the overpowering use of blank space, the motionless screen, the deafening silence of a score so minimalist it's genius and the anti-packaging add up to one of the finest films unavailable today, moving in content this adaptation of the recent 'book temporarily unavailable' doesn't sell the original short. all in all a great piece of work that doesn't seem to attract the attention one feels it should.if you can get the original japanese un-undubbed version, its worth the extra.

So good I can't wait for the sequel 'Permanently Unavailable'

When will this become AVAILABLE!??
Mike Conley from Woodstock, UK , 03/12/2006
Beyond the ability of mere words to describe, _Title Temporarily Unavailable_, the third installment of the trilogy that began with _The Number You Have Dialled Is Not In Service_ and _404: Not Found_, brings the cycle to a satisfying conclusion. The use of John Cage's _4'33_ as the underlying theme throughout the soundtrack helps to maintain the pathos and provides a sense of continuity despite the liberal use of fast cuts, right up through the final fade to black.
A customer from London , 27/03/2008
Like the best work by Beckett or Handke Title Unavailable makes you see your whole life in a totally new light casting shadows over all your hitherto cherished preconceptions.If only those other films I watched those other nights had been unavailable too! What am I doing with my life? Have I become unavailable too? Very, very deep but don't waste another evening watching it or worse writing a review about how disappointed you are about your life and the choices you have made. A wake up call.
