It was about what I expected. Worth seeing. A tad slow in spots but the acting held my interest and overall this was a colorful film. A mostly endearing captivating flick. Notable on screen chemistry between Jonathan Zaccaï and Marion Cotillard. This was my first time seeing Julie Depardieu and I could watch her over and over, delightful actress. This was a first time viewing a movie with this director and I will make a point to find more. It did seem like cinematography talent was wasted and segued into a bit of sand by the creative directive. The ending held full potential to make or break the movie and had a full hand to tip it over into the next quality zone. I feel the placard animation added some crunchy flavor but at the ending was like drawing a deuce instead of an Ace and, and ended in a perfect fold of a cohesive tie -in ending. That left me frustrated, confused, and angry in a non thought provoking manner. However it did spurn me to create a user ID to IDMDB and write my first review.
