It will make you long for the weekend...a picture that seems to ramble its way through an essentially tepid little anecdote.

Beautiful and moody, fiercely intelligent and astoundingly chilly.

I would not want to spend my Friday Night watching this Friday Night. It's bad enough to sit through it on Wednesday morning.

Friday Night never makes the leap from a little fantasy about sex with a stranger to a larger story about a woman settling down for life.

Laure is uptight, slightly vacant, often confused. That the film becomes slightly surreal in the second half doesn't help.
Original Score: 2/4

Very little happens in the picture, and what does happen happens very slowly. It's a well crafted movie that I admired but can't say that I liked.

A very dreamlike experience (especially if you fall asleep while you're watching it).
Original Score: 4/10

This film is so understated and restrained that even the bedroom scenes seem detached.

I'm not arguing that it's bad, only that it's French. Its virtues seem, uh, like some delicacy not really suited for the uneducated palate.

Oddly gawky and tepid.
Original Score: 2/5
