LOVE SONGS (3.5 STARS)

This is a very modern musical. Very much like a new French new wave style. The same director as Dans Paris, and the same lead actor (guy with big nose from dreamers). I actually like a lot of it.

It's very interesting right from the start when you're trying to figure out what's going on, who's with who, and the film plays games with you as to what actually is going on.... then it breaks out in song. Very sleek, hip, Frenchy music.

This director, like i said in the Dans Paris review is try many new things with every picture. All together they seems arrogant and pretentious, but, i'm the kinda guy that would make pretentious kind of movies if i could. He's just trying new things. He's making the movie he wants. I think the word pretentious is pretentious.

Very cool trailer


If you don't watch French films, DO NOT START WITH THIS ONE. But, if you've seen a million, and you just love French styles, French language, and the sights of Paris, then go for it.
