Parc

Sigh. I could go on about how some of the scenes made great use of music and camera movement; one that stands out in particular features a couple passionately kissing, while the one of the characters narrates the relatively quick demise of their relationship, a neat juxtaposition that breathes some life into a pretty slow-moving film. And there is a nice visual energy to the film as a whole. But really, the whole film was mostly ridiculous, the storyline so bizarre at times that it's almost, but not quite, funny. A far less charitable review for a four-letter french word titled film would be a four-letter english word review starting with the letter s.

Overhead on the way out of the theatre: "Are you kidding me? I wanted to leave an hour ago".

Pretty much sums it up.

Kyle, well described and appropriately breezed over. Yes there were moments, but really bloody annoying overall.

almost intentionally annoying, as if daring the audience not to be annoyed.
