Film Socialisme review

It's hard to tell what Jean-Luc Godard wants us to take away from his kooky drama

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Whether or not you believe Jean-Luc Godard’s declaration that “Cinema is dead”, the 80-year-old ‘enfant terrible’ certainly attempts to put it out of its misery with this impenetrable three-act brainfart.

Its protagonists wander random locations making vague pronouncements about stuff, shrugging and smoking.

Depending on taste, it’s either a hypnotic cinematic collage asking profound questions about European identity, a sly practical joke or just the rambling holiday videos of a madman (if the llamas, donkeys and YouTube cats are anything to go by).
