Released by Madman Home Ent
Much like Contagion earlier this year, Perfect Sense takes a look at an outbreak.
Ewan McGregor is Michael, a chef in Glasgow who one day inadvertently happens to see epidemiologist Susan (Eva Green) from a window opposite his restaurant.
But Michael and Susan believe they have each other and can get by - however, the disease begins to spread to other senses as well, bringing civilisation to its knees....
Sprawling and shambolic, arty and a little bit up itself, Perfect Sense feels like an art student's film project just got terribly pretentious and all universal in its approach and feel. Scenes of chaos are intercut with a portentiously stuffy voiceover and give you a feeling this slightly scifi film is a little bit lunatic in its intentions.
At the end of the day, Perfect Sense is about a love affair more than anything - and Green and McGregor have a great chemistry together - and that's just enough to see you through this maraudingly maddening piece which at times, feels like an extended commercial for a car.
Extras: Interviews with the stars, trailer and a brief doco
