Low cost (2011)
Comedy
A film about the worst commercial airline flight in history is clearly going to be either a comedy or a horror film. While writer-director Maurice Barthélémy’sLow Cost aims at the comedic approach, for his audience the film more closely resembles a horror film with its wildly accented acting, cheap shocks, lazy writing and heavy reliance on one-note stereotypes. The French film, which had its world premiere in Los Angeles at the annual City of Lights/City of Angels film series, will get released in France June 8 but probably won’t be in a cinemas for long. Its best bet is European cable TV. Its worst bet is an in-flight movie on any airline.
Starring: Jean-Paul Rouve, Judith Godrèche, Gérard Darmon
Director: Maurice Barthélémy
