35 Rhums (2008) (Claire Denis) 2/10

Slow, interminable, lingering shots of people doing mundane, trivial things until you beg them to stop. Watch as they unwrap rice cookers, ride trains, cook dinner, eat it, walk, dress, drive; all to no discernible purpose. I have read some reviews which try to sell this as a deep and thoughtful study of family relationships. It is not. It is a study in dullness. There is no art in it, and no substance.  Avoid, at all costs.
