    One of the worst french films i have seen in the cinema. I. Huppert is the best of this.

    AWFUL. sick, perverse. i walks out after an hour and a half and i'm shocked that i stayed that long. the plot was weak, so the gratuitous, violent, sexual scenes grew to be boring. yes, they were disturbing, but there was no plot to back them.

    So clinically detached it borders on absurd.

    Director Christophe Honore's respectable, tightly coiled, but ultimately unrewarding adaptation of Georges Bataille's posthumous novel.

    Can't transcend its own suffocating milieu.
