I started again with Netflix awhile back. I’ve been missing a lot of movies and felt kind of out-of-it, so I needed to see something made in the last two years. So, I went back to Netflix.

One cool thing about Netflix is that if you are in-between discs because of the post office, you can stream some movies right onto your PC or similarly-capable device. It’s handy because it’s instantaneous. One such movie is a French film called ‘Swimming Pool’.

This was an odd movie.

As far as subtitles go, most of the movie is in English, but since a good chunk of setting is in France, there are French dialogue sections interspersed in the film. But I’m usually good with subtitled films, so this did not bother me. Your experience may vary.

Anyway, since this is a move review for dudes, let me get to the analysis. This movie is kind of dull. There is a great deal of talking and no guns at all. Explosions are non-existent. BUT, and this is a huge BUT, it is worth watching.

Why?

Ludivine Sagnier, my friends, Ludivine Sagnier. She is the actress who plays Julie and she spends a good chunk of this film with her top off. Now, movie boobs are nothing new. But exceptionally attractive movie boobs can be hard to find and these are totally worth it.

So, in conclusion, I recommend this film, although not vigorously. It’s just okay. It’s certainly more interesting than directory submissions. It does have a crazy-surprise ending that you will not see coming if you got into the actual plot of the film.
