Chris says: “A social media satire that might’ve seemed fresh had it come out a decade earlier, but Dupieux/Exarchopoulos is turning out to be as inspired and correct a pairing as Scorsese/De Niro (and no one has ever rocked a

Chris says: “From the central conceit of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers-esque pastiche to a suitably slimy Serge Gainsbourg tune playing at the opening, this is pure, unfiltered Quentin Dupieux madness; also, he should really consider an origin prequel series

Michael says: “Most of French director Quentin Dupieux’s films begin with a simple, but completely bizarre and often ridiculous premise, that he is then able to spin into an entertaining yarn with some social commentary threaded in. With MANDIBLES, a
