Truly unlikeable characters
Could the male characters in this be any less likable? It's difficult to imagine how. Arrogant, misogynist, conceited, childish... Such inflated opinions of themselves, so outlandishly presented that it was a real struggle to watch this and be able to take them seriously. Daniel and Sam in particular were really hard to watch.
It is though interesting to watch a film where the main character (Adrien) is so unsympathetic, and I thought the last couple of minutes where (SPOILER?) he finally got his sought-after isolation, but couldn't handle it and almost immediately tries to book a trip to London to get back with his ex(?) showed up how shallow and self indulgent he had been throughout the film. All that's fine, I don't have to like everyone in a film to think it's a good piece of work.
But in the end, all this film does (for me) is suggest that there is a theme worth exploring here, without actually doing it justice in it's own right. Where that exploration falls flat is that in the end, even Haydee is unconvincing in the role she fills. While her attitudes and motivations are so very different from what Adrien and Daniel presume, and she flirts with victimhood when she confesses to not getting what she wants in a relationship (normality), in the end I didn't find her reactions to the situations and relationships she was a part of in the least bit convincing, let alone compelling.
Actually, having written that last paragraph, I understand more where I find my problem with it lies - it is either that the characters are poorly developed for the roles they need to fill, or that they are as they should be but their relationships to each other are not naturally or credibly drawn. Either way, it feels like I've watched an early draft of a film, rather than a finished item where the central characters create and occupy a world I have some interest/faith in.
