Last Journey of Paul W.R.

Confused plot meanders through cool, undeveloped concepts for no reason. Beautiful lighting direction, some decent ideas but the world is painfully not fleshed out for what could have been a great setting, average to good cinematography, but in the end the movie suffers from so many story problems it feels hazy and nonsensical. You can only plaster over so many plot holes with style for the sake of style. I will say the movie has a great sense of colour with stark teal vehicle on chocolate brown earth or magenta fluorescent lights on a person's face; however, the writer never came back to fix any of the details. If you go in with no expectations except low budget CGI and pretty colours and accept the plot will be poorly constructed deus ex machina scarecrows that are never explained, you might enjoy it as style for the sake of style.

it has a campy mid-60's nouvelle vague french 'sci-fi' feel & look; i could take the mediocre SFX & CGI because the cinematography is lovely & the framing is good enough, the principal actor's uncanny but washed out resemblance to louis jourdan (look him up) because there are some truly lovely faces in it, the pain of watching an actor i love (jean reno) who just doesn't seem to have it anymore, the generally lackluster, wispy, gauzy commitment to narrative, but after about maybe 18-20 minutes or so the absolutely EXECRABLE voice dubs just exhausted my patience & there was apparently no language selection to choose from. i MIGHT go back & finish it if i can find the original language version despite there being no real THERE there.
