This is a lot like Moulin Rouge, if you took out the music and the dancing and the bright colors and Ewan McGregor - you know, everything fun. Three friends try to save their theater in wartime Paris, but get embroiled in mob dealings and Communist politics. It should be fun, but it's just not. Usually I am all for subtitles - it's a hundred times better than dubbing unless you're talking about Godzilla - but this is the kind of movie that would probably have been better if I could have been doing a couple of other things while watching it.
My Netflix rating: 3 stars
