Its a good description of dot the i, a movie in which life is, in fact, a movie, and one complex (and honest) enough to acknowledge that sometimes lov ..

A jejune version of sex, lies and videotape, right down to its lowercase affectations, dot the i is a movie made by someone whos seen too many movies.

So in love with its own inventions and convolutions that it ignores all plausibility and audience acceptance.

At the center of the film is Verbeke, a Spanish actress with an insinuating smile thats worth millions.

Cross Dot The I off your viewing list...crosses the boundary of implausibility so often and so blatantly that it winds up being absolutely laughable.

You watch the screen in disbelief and amazement that any aspiring auteur could so willfully undermine his own project this way.

Once the effect of the second acts gimmick wears off, you find yourself growing more and more annoyed at the improbability of the entire setup.

While Parkhills filmmaking remains almost hypnotic throughout, the increasingly nonsensical manipulations doom Dot the I to being a deftly made blunde ..

The result is funny in its way, and in line with the movie references throughout, but ultimately the viewer is not left with the necessary pathos.

Not only strains to connect the dots, but also pretends to be some thoughtful treatise on cinema versus reality. Sadly, its just a tired bag of tricks ..

Parkhill flips on the plot twist machine, and Dot the I becomes excruciatingly ridiculous in a multitude of ways.

The revelation of the film is not Bernal but DArcy, who loafs from a callow throwaway part into something a heck of a lot more interesting.
