Cake

Du coup, la performance convaincante de Jennifer Aniston tourne à vide, donnant à Cake des allures d'écrin sans âme pour actrice en quête d'Oscar.

Cake est par ailleurs de nature très dramatique, mais quelques beaux traits d'humour le traversent quand même.

If you can't see where this is going, you've probably never seen a movie before. But the script plods on, complete with an ending that futilely tries to tidy up the scenario strands.

Ultimately, the film is better at comedy than it is at the tragic stuff, and Aniston's redoubtable comic timing never fails her.

Tout cela pour dire que Cake souffre de défauts scénaristiques d'importance, qu'on voit venir la fin à des kilomètres et que, et c'est dommage, Jennifer Aniston livre un personnage parfois trop unidimensionnel.

At the last minute, Cake becomes a film not about physical pain, but a different kind entirely, and one about which it doesn't have all that much new to say.

This Cake isn't fallen. It's just a bit deflated.

No good can ultimately come from a movie that is as obsessed with wind chimes as Cake.

Cake doesn't want to make Claire easy on us, either. 

Eventually, Cake reveals how Claire came to be left with the fat scars across her face and thighs.
