Even for Quentin Dupieux, the master of surreal, this film is batsh*t crazy
Five superpower avengers who release toxic fumes (from cigarette ingredients) to defend against evil giant mutant tortoises are placed in a retreat to improve their teamwork. Once there, the 5 of them, along with a random 6 year old girl and a talking fish share urban myth type horror stories before being asked to save the world from a galactic man-lizard bad guy.
I guess it has something to say about the environment, smoking and toxicity in general but I was too caught up in the mayhem to develop any sense of an analytical mindset.
Insane. And highly enjoyable. I love Quentin Dupieux.
7.3/10
