Cache



The Good:

The film had a very menacing, unsettling feel to it - and the pacing added to that brilliantly.

The Bad:
It was segmented.

This is one time when I really did feel that subtitles took away from being able to enjoy the movie. If you became focused on the subtitles - which unless you understand French you are going to have to do - then you missed a lot of the movie.

Another film with a convoluted ending. I hate those.

All in all:

I had high hopes for this back when I saw the trailers when it was in Cannes. It was pretty much a complete let down. Pretty much all the good stuff was packed into the trailers. Maybe if I understood French and could have avoided the subtitles I would have liked it more.
