The Lady in the Car with Glasses and a Gun

This film is clearly meant to pay homage to French films of, say, the 1960s or so. The two other people I watched this with didn't get this fact at all, since they never watch those types of films. Overall, it's stylishness is too forced, but the essential story line is good. If you're into old cars, there are a couple of good ones co-starring here--I was particularly smitten by the Citroen SM. I thought that the plot to this mystery/thriller was unpredictable and original, but the twist at the end that put all the pieces together seemed unnecessarily artificial. I have no regrets spending the evening watching this, as opposed to whatever the latest mindless addition to the "Fast and Furious" franchise is, but the whole experience didn't quite gel as well as it could have. All things considered though, this film gets good marks for it's flawed but still interesting style, not just going for easy "money shots", and having an original and convoluted plot. I especially liked that I never felt that it was targeted towards 14-year old males, even though people sometimes accuse me of behaving like one.
