Edward B May 13 Lovely piece of cinema a must watch for all 4/5 See more 05/11/2020 My take on this film is... Awesome! Think "Swimming Pool", or "La Moustache". Was is all a dream? was it all real? what it a mental health issue? I loved it. See more 06/12/2018 Echoes of Haneke's Caché, Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut and Lynch's Lost Highway. If that excites you then you'll love Dominik Moll's mesmerising psychological thriller with its serpentine plotting and quiet threat. The less you know about it the better. Wonderfully acted by the entire cast. See more 05/22/2015 Alternates between being interesting and oddly dull. This experiment in metaphor and surrealism never really works. See more 05/01/2013 I don't speak French, yet I feel this film would make more sense without subtitles... It's interesting and has a creeping tension that's never over the top but it's stuck in the all-too-familiar realm of mixing reality with illusion to a frustrating and headache inducing extent. it simply isn't necessary to be this oblique- there's time spent creating an unease within normality and when it all stops being normal the unease becomes confusion and then disinterest. The performances are strong- I'm personally a big fan of Gainsbourg and she gives a typically good performance here. It doesn't change the fact that this is a slow frenzy of a film though- a strange beast that spends most of its time lying down instead of roaring around. It's fun to observe for a while but as it goes on the spectacle lessens. There's still much to see here- it's constantly intriguing and most scenes would work very well as stand-alone devices but the experience overall is no where near as smart. If ever there was a film a film that wasn't the sum of its parts, its this one. See more 02/17/2013 Splendid work by all four leads plus a squeaking role for the lemming. See more Read all reviews
