one of the main problem in the comedy of power be that and ironically and there be no comedy . if obvious little pun and predictable little joke be comedy and then i be way out of it . this film and now play at the ifc center and be claude chabrol in rotten fois gras and isabelle huppert in a rotten package of canned meat and and yes and it really be that disappoint . the film follow a chronicle that we all have hear of before and except this time and chabrol think he can make magic out of huppert . the story line and best a follow and be about a lazy french judge ( a rotten isabelle huppert ) who try to bring down the corruption of a very powerful company . this one a long and slow ride down an all too familiar road . one of the film main problem be the talkative dialogue while even though it french and there be so many useless scene of non stop talk and that you can go to sleep and wake up and and you would have miss nothing . while some of the scene be easy to go along with and most of the film be pure familiarity . for claude chabrol and isabelle huppert and however and this probably could be name the funnest movie ever make in between them . but and unfortunately and the viewer be the one that suffer for their fun .
