Une milf limite cougar, névropathe sur les bords, reprend son avorton à la maison, avorton qu'elle aurait dû avorter il y a bien longtemps étant donné les troubles du comportement de l'énergumène (un rain man en devenir sans doute). S'ensuitUne milf limite cougar, névropathe sur les bords, reprend son avorton à la maison, avorton qu'elle aurait dû avorter il y a bien longtemps étant donné les troubles du comportement de l'énergumène (un rain man en devenir sans doute). S'ensuit une véritable bataille rangée entre les deux, bataille rejointe éventuellement par la voisine d'en face, presque aussi atteinte que les deux autres.

J'avoue qu'on ne tient pas bien longtemps devant ces presque deux heures vingt de salmigondis foutraque, ce dégueulis à peine cinématographique à mi-chemin entre le documentaire fortement faisandé et le "Confessions intimes".

Le film est en 4/3, même beaucoup moins qu'un 4/3 (presque un quatre quarts peut-être) et entièrement en québécois : cela ressemble si peu au français métropolitain qu'on a jugé bon (quelque part à la production ou en haut lieu, que sais-je...) d'activer la traduction simultanée au moyen de sous-titres.

Mais ces misères techniques ne sont en définitive que broutilles (éminemment désagréables certes) en comparaison de la vacuité et de la bêtise incommensurables du propos de ce pseudo-film, pour autant qu'il y eût quelque chose à même de passer pour un "propos" ou un vague contenu dans cette ignominie prétentieuse.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Extremely bad movie from a filmdirector who does not know or does not want to know anything what is all about to make a movie. The dialogues are extremely bad, very uninteresting because , I think: see above.
Same considering the story: not any interesting dramatisation can be found in the whole movie.
All actors/actresses are mostly overacting and very boring and, again, uninterersting to look at.
Perhaps one of the worst movies I ever saw in my life (my age is 71) after seeing about 4400 feature-films which include nearly anything of all great filmdirectors as ,for example, Kubrick,Fellini and Bergmann.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. From the very first shot this movie screams “I’m not like them other films.” The 1:1 aspect ratio and use of artsy lenses is evident of that. But I really liked the dream sequence. Editing was mostly mediocre though. I don’t really like how all men are coded in an exclusively negative way. The lawyer just wants sex from Die, Kyla’s husband’s job is more important than what Kyla wants and she has just to follow him, Steve is just destroying everyone's lives. It seems like in this film men are only holding back and negatively affecting women. Like that’s all they do. And Steve is portrayed just as a straight up menace. His depiction is very shallow, we don't see any of his inner world and I don’t think his character is based on realistic psychology of a human being. But mom/son relationship dynamics do seem realistic. I noticed how everyone is telling the truth when they are drunk. Rather a simplistic take on alcohol from the director. Why can’t everyone stop being fake and face the truth when they’re sober? Ultimately that's what killed Steve when Die chose to believe in some fake ‘hope’. Or maybe that's just how she justified her actions. Either way the outcome is the same. I think the director didn’t have a clear vision of what type of movie he was making. It looks very formal with a huge accent on aesthetics and a huge amount of beautiful cheesy scenes and shots that are very technical (like slow-mo, tracking shots). But the narrative is realistic. It’s the opposite of the visual. Last note, hearing Dido and Lana Del Rey (Born To Die. I **** you not) made me cringe a bit. It was like a cherry on top of those cheesy cliché scenes.… Expand
