Seen it?

Overview

This film is made up several sketches in which certain actors play several real or fictional roles to a background of rock music. The lead character, played by Godard himself, is an annoyingly perfectionist film-maker determined to wring every last drop of the finest performance possible from his stars.

This isn't one of Godard's best features, though it certainly has its moments.

Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Rotten

One of those failures by great artists that are more provocative to think about than to experience.

Amy Taubin, Village Voice
Fresh

Offers pleasure as well as frustration and engages even as it baffles.

A.O. Scott, New York Times
