This is pretty inane with many conversations leading absolutely nowhere. Someone wrote a script and forgot about the plot. It's like recording conversations at work and making a movie of it – there's even a company picnic at the end. The boss's wife is weird in that she tries to set up a date for her husband with another female co-worker. She herself goes for another man in the office but unfortunately nothing comes from that too. There is a suppressed sexuality which should have been less suppressed, as this would have added needed zest to this yawn of a film. I kept noticing mundane things, like why are they drinking tea when they are in France. I was hoping for some kind of conflict and story to materialize somewhere in all this dialogue. It's all simply too DULL.
