Foreign Film Reviews - Ferpect Crime, Body Confusion

Look at Me: A French film that is too French for it's own good. Much like its country of origin, it meanders around aimlessly with only a few noteworthy moments and it flees at the first suggestion of a difficult task, in this case, finding & developing a plot. Ultimately, by the end of the movie, you end up with the same feeling you get at the end of a fine cutting edge French dinner...unfullfilled & still hungry.

Ferpect Crime: Spanish film that defines dark comedy. The main character, a master of his domain, even if the domain is only a mall department store (at least he rules over something) tries to rise in the mall pecking order but is sidetracked by a series of unfortunate accident & tries to find the sole witness. Very very funny.

Body Confusion: A Spanish film, the second Spanish comedy I've seen and who would've thought the Spaniards had such a great sense of humor? The main character find his life is nothing more than a bad movie played by bad actors. Think of the Matrix with a worse actor than Keanu. Well, more like a good actor playing a bad actor who is worse than Keanu. Very funny flick.
