       Young Montréal twenty-somethings and their love problems. Not really my favourite genre, no matter what nationality.

       Marie (Chokri) and Francis (Dolan) have been best mates forever. They spend their time with their beautiful friends, smoking, drinking, shopping for beautiful clothes. Nico (Schneider) joins the gang. Gorgeous, dimpled, smart. Both Marie and Francis fall in love with him.

       The words ‘banal’, ‘pretentious’, and ‘meaningless’ come to mind. And the question, ‘Will this never end?’

       Totally not my kind of film. It’s visually stylish but pointless and boring. 

1* of 5.
