"Les derniers jours du monde" ~ 7/10

There's not much in this movie. The plot may or may not be that much original. Anyway, its point of view is french, that is to say (or is that ?) intimist. And therefore rather exceptional for a science fiction flick.
The actors (Mathieu Amalric, Catherine Frot, Karin Viard, Sergi López...) are great - and sometimes naked, which might be added as a good point, since being naked is probably one huge difficulty when performing in front of the camera.

This film gave me the feeling that there might be a way of making "french" science fiction, a thing that might not have been done since the greatest masterpiece of this very restricted genre : "La jetée". Too bad it is so rare...
