Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia"Coupez!" was originally titled "Z (comme Z)" until Ukrainian filmmakers pleaded Michel Hazanavicius to change the title. The reasoning for this is the use of the letter "Z" painted on the tanks of the Russian army in their invasion of Ukraine.
Featured review
Enjoyable French twist on the original
Not normally too interested in remakes of films in other languages, but Artist director Hazanavicius being involved got me interested, and glad it did. There's a huge amount of fun to be had here - it is as much comedy as horror - with a great cast & director enjoying playing with the B movie concept of it all.
The opening chunk drops you right into the film being shot in a disused building, deliberately wrong-footing the viewer (also leaves you wondering why the French characters are all using Japanese names), only for the later two thirds of the film to show what we had been watching and put it all into context. It's a nice way to approach it and felt quite satisfying (to me, anyway). It may not be genius, but it is fun - make a good pizza night bit of viewing on a weekend.
