An average movie

When was the last time that Luc Besson has delivered a really good movie? I’m not even talking about the lame movies he has been producing lately but even his directing efforts have been rather disappointing. Well, with this is mind, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this flick but I certainly didn’t expect it to be so underwhelming. I mean, it was nice that he was trying something really different than his previous movies, I’ll give him that, but barely nothing did work with this feature. At first, it seemed to be some kind of female version of Indiana Jones which sounded actually rather promising but, as soon as the main character got back to Paris, it all became some kind of terrible mess involving a pterodactyl and some mummy who had to be resurrected. Concerning Louise Bourgoin, sure, she was very nice looking and she displayed some potential but her acting was sometimes decent but usually rather weak. Still, I don’t think she was the one really to blame here. Indeed, the tone was more annoying than really entertaining and the story, as mentioned before, was just a boring mess. To conclude, surprisingly, it turned out to be the weakest movie delivered by the French director, at least, in my opinion, and I don’t think it is really worth a look.
