I liked the photography of the film, although it had some awkward moments when the camera pushed in and you'd only see the tips of the noses for a while.

Also the science is surprisingly sound (with exceptions of course), the whole premise of producing an oxytocin precursor in a plant is actually technically feasible. Unfortunately, this is where the good stuff ends.
The plot is incredibly slow and leads nowhere. The side-effects of the horror plant are barely noticeable and most of the drama comes from the main character being a poorly performing mother. In the end, I turned the playback speed to 1.5x just to make it through and it still felt like it took too long. The story would fit in a 30 min youtube short but was padded with 2 hours of unnecessary runtime. It's not even mysterious or asking exciting questions – it's just boring.

(à ce qu’il paraît).

Il paraît d’ailleurs que ça monte directement au cerveau avec des conséquences sans doute pas aussi prévisibles qu’on l’aurait cru… Du moins, ça c’est la théorie ou l’espèce de point de départ de ce film (de merde) primé par les mange-merdes de l’asile de Cannes.

Mais en pratique, il s’agit simplement d’un vague machin psychologique à deux de tension qui se traîne à n’en plus pouvoir ! c’est lent comme un escargot en côte et d’une vacuité qui donne le vertige… de la somnolence. Toute comparaison avec un certain « Profanateurs de Sépultures » serait bien entendu vaine et hors de propos. Ce machin est à faire mourir de honte le plus minable des téléfilms à la petite semaine : navrant et inutile !

This film is a waste of plot because the latter is very particular but it has been wasted in a film that is ridiculously banal and in general ugly and without my sense and moreover it is a deadly bore.
