Film doesn't need to be French to be good, and believe me, my taste is quite wide. But it is not nearly wide enough to include a cliche-driven pathetic excuse of a suspense. You watch it and you see things you have seen hundreds of times before, and none done in any refreshing way. If you call a drowned person jumping back to life "classic suspense language" then I think we do have different expectations on what "classic" is.The film is so bad I could never watch it in its entirety. Man, I would take any of Cheech & Chong's movies over it any day, or even Dumb and Dumber. Now... those are classic!
