Intriguingly cynical, and fillled with awesome tracking shots and many hilarious scenes, but it got far too preachy toward the end. I think I can more or less grasp what Godard is trying to say, but the problem is I'm just not very interested in any of it. If I were, I bet I'd worship Week End as one of the all-time greatest political films made. But since I'm not, I don't.

I do understand that Godard's film is an "open text" preoccupied with politics and with reinventing film language but it's such an exhausting watch. It does have some incredible elements (e.g. highway long take). Ultimately, though, it's way too uneven, often being thoroughly annoying.

There are moments here of enormous beauty, potency and wit. But many of the things Godard seemingly want to express seem to drown in all the absurdity and surrealism on display.

For me, it's the best mix of Godard's two big loves - highly enjoyable, convention-breaking fun and polemic, cold political themes. It's completely unpredictable, filled with skits all wrapped around a central theme. It comes across as a highly-focused attack on thousands of different things at once. No other Godard has enraptured me as much as Week End did.

There are some impressive scenes and the overall air of subversity is well executed. Much of the time though I felt as if Godard was purposely trying to annoy me, and for the most part he succeeded.

I think I'll be revisiting this film soon, it's filled with ideas, which makes it rather overwhelming and hard to swallow on a late night. On the other hand, the photography in this film is definitely on par with the best of his previous work, and some scenes are just endlessly fascinating. I also loved his subtle approach towards surrealism here, I'm pretty certain Charlie Kaufman was influenced by it, or at least his style is comparable on many levels.

Godard goes off the deep end and takes us along for the ride. It's violent, preachy, absurdist, playful, cynical and a whole lot of other things, some of which work, some of which don't but all of which are at least interesting on some level. I found it a lot of fun even though some parts felt bogged down and while I'm not sure I'd say it's a good film it's definitely unique enough to be worth watching.

It's not that I feel it's over my head (though maybe it is), I just can't make myself care. At heart I have to admit I watch movies for entertainment or emotional stimulation. I don't want people reading philosophy to me and all this didactic preachery. I don't mind being challenged from time to time, but I don't want to be part of whatever revolution you're selling. I did enjoy the general spirit of the film, however, and the references to Bunuel.
