    The performances are uniformly strong.
  3. The characters...are well cast, well directed and skillfully acted, if not a particularly admirable lot.
  4. The group in Portraits Chinois is a little too diverse and unwieldy to keep emotional track of.
  5. Nicely acted and capably directed, but hardly memorable.
  6. 50
    It's all pretty entertaining in a shallow sort of way.
  7. 38
    Something most have gotten lost in the translation.
  8. 20
    The predicaments of this whiny, unprepossessing crew inspire about as much sympathy as a celebrity divorce.
