Jours de France (4 Days in France)

A bored Frenchman decides to take a pointless road trip, making Grindr hookups and other empty liaisons along the way, with no particular destination in mind. Add to the mix the fact that he’s a spineless candy-ass and you get a film that is every bit as boring as the main character would be in person. It drags on for well over two hours, far more than it could possibly be worth. I walked out in disgust about halfway through, because I had no interest, affection, attraction, empathy, sympathy, or respect for the central character. He is a cipher unworthy of my time.

AVOID THIS FILM. After all, there is bound to be some paint drying somewhere that you could watch instead.
