Flux Gourmet is billed as "not for everyone," but also as a genius satirical black comedy. I am in the "everyone" category. This film is very pleased with itself for being so smart and funny. I couldn't tell what was supposed to be funny andFlux Gourmet is billed as "not for everyone," but also as a genius satirical black comedy. I am in the "everyone" category. This film is very pleased with itself for being so smart and funny. I couldn't tell what was supposed to be funny and what was supposed to be serious; most of the time I was trying to understand what the flip people were talking about. By the end I was intensely bored. If I were younger, I think i would have loved it because it made people bored and confused, but alas, I am the bored and confused one. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Weird in one of the worst ways possible. Though it may be satire, Flux Gourmet just stumbles on itself, ending up as frown-provoking. The flatulences of a Greek man are close to the plot's core, suggesting a 5 year-old may have been involved in the screenwriting process. I spent most of the movie looking forward to its end, and left the theatre feeling queasy - this is the first time in my life a film has made me physically sick. Some of the only decently entertaining moments are the improv theatre exercises where the characters, playing snobbish meta-characters with refined tastes, navigate an imaginary supermarket looking for rare delicacies - and even these felt a bit over-the-top in a way. Please save yourself the pain of watching this - the face of the institute's director and her absence of eyebrows might follow you into your nightmares. Expand
