CGiii Comment

A long-winded account of a rather bizarre and wholly uninteresting story.

No surprises. No tangible talent. No concrete answers.

Dull and forgettable.

Langlois should have been capable of making something out of this flat story - injecting a little interest into the mix - what happened?

Too dull even for improvement!
