Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
ems-128-967415 This is one of my all-time favourites. It was also an absurd struggle to actually get to watch it. It took a year of waiting from having caught half the trailer on telly, by chance, to eventually finding the ONLY cinema that actually dared show it here, an ancient and endearing indie haunt in town centre. Then the eerie experience of being only two in the room - the other a girlfriend I'd managed to convince to tag along - and therefore able to actually talk out loud and stick feet on other seats. The comfort of my living room with a big screen, dolby surround, and an amazing film. CQ2 is of course a great dance movie (as long as you are not allergic to contemporary) but despite what some other reviewers have said, dance is in no way central to its story. Sure the dancing is a great pretext for the inventive photography and it bestows rhythm to an instinctive, intuitive film editing. Sure it creates catharsis and a far more powerful visual outlet to the rage and psychological violence that suffuses so much of this film. But first and foremost, CQ2 is about the inadequacy of human relationships, desires and ambitions, our inability to communicate strong emotions adequately. It is about the raw rage that may experience anyone with a sense of the concepts of truth, love or justice, when they realise how inept our world is at meeting those most basic needs. Kudos to Carole Laure. A shame that my luxury experience of an empty cinema and the enduring silence of critics and distributors probably means she ended up in debt for producing this work of art.
m_ats The resemblance between Rachel (Clara Furey) and her real-life mom (Carole Laure, director) is striking. This movie succeeds at undertaking difficult themes and weaving them with beautifully choreographed dance scenes (reminding some scenes of Carole Laure's music videoclips). Dance, here seems to be shown as a path for healing. The problem is that these interludes are somehow too frequent, and sometimes not very well integrated with the film. The general practice with Rachel and other young dancers is thrown in the middle of the film as if from nowhere, and drags on and on. Aside of that, the language level also bothered me. Dialogs didn't quite felt natural, and one could sense that the tension to render the French neutral (international) vs retaining some local flavour, was not handled very well.
Rainsford55 Though I watched this without the benefit of subtitles and I don't speak a word of French, this is one of the most beautiful films that I've seen. It's difficult to believe that the French or Canadian's didn't embrace this bold and imaginative film.The colors, the music, the dance and the characters are brilliantly brought to the screen by Carole Laure and I gave it 10/10. Danielle Hubbard, Jean Marc Barr, Clara Furey and Mireille Thibault are perfectly cast.Enchanting, provocative, enthralling. Hard to find, but if you get the chance, watch it. Remember, I can't speak French, but I love it and I believe you'll enjoy it.
Georg Litty I watched that movie last week in cinema. It's about young girl who doesn't know how to live with a mother who's given up life, just doesn't care about anything. The daughter's looking for life, acceptance, for someone who takes her seriously, and she's finally finding a dance teacher, fresh from jail, who seems to fit. She is patient, interested, does something in life, shows feelings, and does all a mother could be expected to, so she is willingly accepted as replacement mother ... But why was she in jail, and how will the story of those two end?The movie is about feelings and the need of someone caring about you, especially when your a teenager. Also it's about dancing, and the dancing scenes are brilliant. Plus the head actress, Clara Furey, is really cute. You should watch the movie, but always expect surprises, and not only good ones. Life isn't always nice to you.BTW, that movie won the prize of the Youth Jury of Tübingen's French Movie Festival 2004, where it was shown as a part of the quebecois section of the festival.
