Gaspar Noe's latest film is a 3D drama about sex and love, and honestly it was rather dissapointing. The film is undoubtly well shot, full of beautiful long static and slow moving shots with the usual Noe colour palette featuring lots of red. However the rest of the film itself is only slightly interesting, it follows some guy called Murphy as he remembers his past with his former girlfriend whilst being stuck in the present depressed with an accidental kid. It's full of the expected explicit unsimulated sex scenes, but it all just feels a bit lackluster and stagnant, lacking the real kick it needs to make it truly good, which is the problem when the main focus of Noe's seemed be filming the real sex rather than anything else.The film still isn't bad though and is decent overall, it's just disappointing that it doesn't live up to the same strength of his previous work. ***
