this film be probably the bad film that i have ever see . i be study french at college and thus understand all the dialog and so the language barrier wasn not an issue . i must say it be really hard to empathize with any of the character depict in the movie . there be only one professional actor in the cast and i be guess no professional director or writer . although i have rat it negative it probably doesn not merit such a poor rating . this be merely a futile effort of lower it current overall rating of 7 . 3 to something more realistic . perhaps 4 . 3 would be a more accurate rating because the film be a true non event 100 minute or so in length that you will never get back . the real shame be that i be sure some college student be bust his nut make a film twice as good and half the length . however if you want to join the bandwagon which seem to be roll around imdb you might as well go ahead give lose in translation a 10 as well .
