Le gamin au vélo aka The Kid with a Bike (Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, 2011)


Typical pretentious art-house flick about some annoying brat growing up. If you are into this kind of movies (I’m not really btw), there’s of course lots of much better such stuff around. Obvious one being 400 Blows, but also some stuff of Maurice Pialat and Jean-Claude Brisseau comes to my mind.

The only saving grace of this sleeper is Cécile De France. In 10 years since Haute Tension she definitely succeeded in transforming herself from girl to a woman. Damn French, they just keep on producing these divas.

3/10
