Review
B-
Mmm,
Lindvall...
The Coppola son has
fashioned a film better than anything his
legendary father has made in years. CQ is a film
with tons of cinematic references and inside
jokes that only those with a high 'Film IQ' will
be able to pick up on. This is a well made film.
Movies that are about other movies are odd in
that I would usually prefer to see the fictional
film rather than the one I am actually watching.
In CQ, both films appear to be equally fun and
exuberant. They are both colorful and
entertaining and worth a trip to the theatre.
Angela Lindvall is one of the few supermodels
who have made a successful transition into
acting... she is a delight to watch here in a
really terrific role, part Barbarella - part
James Bond!
Did anyone else think the computer with a French
accent was a nice touch?
Where the
heck did this film even come from? It was
totally off my radar, but was quite fun and
entertaining. Lindvall's not really my type...so
TC can have her.
