    So boring. I couldn't reach the end of first episode. Certainly not for me, but still, what is in this series, that it got so high rank?

    Be prepared for an unbearable deluge of inane dialogues, pompous and arrogant name dropping (Gilles Deleuze, Leonard Cohen, arcane and long forgotten pre-war film makers), self-indulgent scenes about French film making that say more about the navel-gazing and narrow-mindedness of Assayas than being really sardonic.

    This is the worst of French "cinema" and art-house film making. Stuck in a Godard/Nietzschean loop of constant self-reference, an aggravated state of neurosis and its pendant, narcissism. There is absolutely not a single beautiful scene in it.
    For a far more beautiful, poignant and simply superior insights on the importance of acting or art in our lives, watch Station Eleven again.    … Expand

    Um ótimo começo pra uma série bem promissora, com um roteiro bem escrito, ótimas atuações e uma direção linda e encantadora. Estarei acompanhando semanalmente com muita alegria.

    Entertaining, disorienting, at times annoying, Irma Vep is like being tickled.

    It’s probably not for everyone but once you tune into its whimsical rhythms, Irma Vep makes for a coolly captivating summer binge-watch. Witty, sophisticated, not always entirely successful, but rarely less than riveting.
