Sergius never manages to come across as unlikeable; on the contrary, it’s impossible not to admire his audacity, his grit, and why not, his absolute ruthlessness. The comedic drive is also present in this film, and I must note that it is of excellent quality; in fact, it peeks through in the most highly dramatic aspects and perhaps this was also a reason for scandal.

The most fitting adjective is rhetorical, and although almost all American films are so, when levels so nauseating are reached, there’s little to overlook. I was dozing off waiting to see Blink reappear... so beautiful and goth... but the director intended to use her as cannon fodder for the sentinels.

Jean-Marc is increasingly prostrated by the fear of no longer being able to one day recognize his partner Chantal. The concluding part of the story unsuccessfully tries to elevate her to something meaningful instead yielding to the realm of surreal rhetoric, leaving quite a bitter aftertaste.
