Review of Tout Va Bien (1972) by Brian B — 07 Jun 2007

I found Tout Va Bien to be a completely worthless film. It starts off all right, similar to a Wes Anderson film, but it goes downhill fast. It is a very political film, and the politics don't really apply to today.

There isn't much of a story to it, and there isn't any strong charactors so it doesn't do much to hold your attention. The acting is good, but the direction is a bit pretentious. Shots last far too long, and the majority of the movie is filled in by monotonous monologues.

By the time the movie was almost over I literally had to restrain myself from fast-forwarding to end it sooner. Not worth your time. Overall 1.5/4 Stars Grade = C-.
