French cinema as a whole, excluding a few notable exceptions, has become rather dull and monotonous over the past few decades. Generic "art films" with no real artistic or philosophical value whatsoever have mostly replaced genuine experimental film, turning French cinema into a bland and repetitive farce. Like the French economy, it just lacks that creative spark that makes films fun.
Ofcourse, if you don't watch many films, it isn't all that bad, because the concepts and dialogues being repeated over and over again in slightly different forms are fairly good. The lack of originality only becomes really offensive when you are exposed to it too often. It's a sad fact that one who wants to watch some original and authentic French films is still best off with the likes of Godard and Renoir.
