Le serpent

A bit anemic story. Narration ought to be snapier and character directing more strict. Finn Minna Haapkylä is a brilliant actress. She managed French superb, but the part they put her acting here was almost good for nothing. Score is nice, especially in the beginning and the very end. Otherwise just okay.

Half decent french thriller.

Almost decent for a while, but after speed-dumps and a pothole during the first third this slowly drags on - and mixing it up with a few of those lesser plot-elements from US-thrillers isn't a solution. *Preview*: #13#, exp-3*, story, Olga.K!/9, R2.
