Chaos is a pretty good French movie; the back of the case describes it as Run Lola Run meets Thelma and Louise, which I thought was pretty apt. The cinematography was kind of unique, in that it seemed to be shot with hand held cameras, if really high quality. And the editing complemented the 'chaotic' theme of the movie, which makes you pay attention, but was a nice accent.
best lines -
"Allez en enfer!" (go to hell!)
"Ce n'est pas le premier fois de quelque chose." (basically, 'it wouldn't be the first time') (though the subtitles for that were 'I've already been there. Now I'm back.')
