    Jesus. This film made me more terrified of Frenchmen than Stephen King ever could.
    Veeeery nice, though, très bien. Probably not for everybody, but yeah. Bit of a Gilliam flair to it (...obviously, considering it was inspired by Brazil and presented as an homage to Gilliam in N.A.).

    L'excellence!! superb! Great movie in all its aspects acting, directing, script, soundtrack, photo, everything) Since the start with the open credits filmed with such detail. You'll know you're going to see a great film. 10 years 10 months ago

    I had no idea what I was getting into with this movie but I ended up really enjoying it. Extremely quirky, great lighting, great camera work, it was just a real visual feast. 12 years 1 month ago
