Premise: In 2054, Paris is a labyrinth where all movement is monitored and recorded. Casting a shadow over everything is the city's largest company, Avalon, which insinuates itself into every aspect of contemporary life to sell its primary export – eternal youth and beauty. When 22-year-old Ilona, one of Avalon's most promising scientists, is abruptly kidnapped, Avalon calls on Barthélémy Karas, a Paris cop with a hard-fought reputation for finding anyone, no matter what sacrifices he has to make along the way. As the trail gets hot, Karas senses he's not the only one looking for the beautiful enigma, and every witness he digs up seems to turn up dead.

Did anyone watch this?

[matt35mm]

Yes.  I saw it in a theater at 4am during a marathon of movies that started at midnight, which might have been why I found it so boring, but I'm pretty sure it was just legitimately a bad movie.  Everything that's cool about it wears off really quickly and then you're left with poorly handled storytelling.

[cronopio 2]

yeah, it's as boring as they come, like that ethan hawke movie about vampires.
