    Vive Godard

    When I saw the words "heavily influenced by Jean-Luc Godard" on the opening page for this movie, I said "Snap!" to myself. It's a much better Godard movie than many of the master's own recent efforts, with it's aleatory structure, it's offbeat philosophising, and it's wonderful dance sequences.

    it's a beautiful film that won't appeal to those who like films with a beginning, a middle and an end and some of the audience might want to strangle the foley artists, but those of us who love inventive, cutting edge cinema will thank whatever God they believe in for this breath of fresh air from the East
