Basically, it is once again one of these really obscure French movies that almost no one has seen here on listal (indeed, not even 10 listal members have seen it so far). Anyway, I remember this movie pretty well, I even saw it in the movie theater when it was released. At the time, Cédric Klapisch just had his biggest box-office success, ‘Un air de famille’, but, for this follow-up, he decided to go for something more experimental, probably his most ambitious project so far. Indeed, he tried to make a SF feature but it was something more sentimental and poetic than your usual SF movie with the usual impressive special effects and futuristic gadget. Eventually, it was barely seen at the time and it didn’t get much love but I thought it was not that bad. Indeed, Kaplisch was working again with Romain Duris, his muse, and the guy was completely watchable as usual. Ok, I’ll admit that the whole story was a little bit half-baked and Klapisch didn’t completely convince me with his vision of the future but, somehow, I still liked the damned thing. To conclude, even though it is a really obscure flick, I still think it is worth a look, especially if you are interested in French movies.
