IMDB

A bizarre comedy/crime movie about two guys who rape, rob, and fuck their way through France.  They kidnap a blond woman who eventually consensually joins them on their devious escapades.
The rape at the beginning of the film turned me off a bit, but, thankfully, it isn’t a large part of the movie.  Most of the sex is consensual.  Some of the film is funny, yet it is somewhat gritty.  It plays out almost like a collage, with no real narrative, other than they want to make the blond woman orgasm.  Some of it might be lost on me due to cultural and generational differences, but it was a fairly enjoyable film.


7/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
