    Marc Caro made some amazing films when paired with Jean-Pierre Jeunet. This is his first film in 10 years and it's a huge disappointment. What starts off as an intriguing idea soon spirals into madness, cheapness and poor film making. The religious symbolism soon becomes a mallet...( read more) which is smacked over our heads. The nice set design soon loses it's appeal. Overall Event Horizon and Alien 3 have dealt with similar themes in a much more sophisticated manner. Many things go unexplained and other plot points are utterly ridiculous. Finally the ending has a few shots played continuously on a loop, getting faster and faster, for around 3 minutes. It's bearable, but not essential.

    Nice movie, good acting but the story was a bit thin, almost like a short film.
  • December 20, 2008
    Full of logic holes and weird for the sake of weird. Character motivations for a lot of the film came out of no where, and a lot of the plot and script seems to have been kept in the writers head. And the ending is just.........wtf.

    But it's French, so not that surprising. ...( read more)Has some good performances in it but not one to hunt out

    Where have you 93 people seen this movie? Regardless of you people's ratings(of which I doubt you have even seen the movie, and if so, probably a low quality download) I really want to see the movie.
