    Arse and farce
    This is one of those French films that starts off with a load of boobs and public hair to get you interested but then you can turn off after about 8 minutes.

    I didn't have any subtitles but it was quite clear that this was a farce.

    10/10 for the first 7 minutes 1/10 for the next 77 minutes.
