"INCREDIBLE BUT TRUE commences with an intriguing question mark hanging over audience's heads, only when the answer is revealed (in a two-fold step implemented through slightly confusing montages), the story goes less fantastic than it promises, the immemorial obsession of a woman gets her youth back (so she can be a model, no less) is tiring and its 'skin deep' revelation also feels too facile. The ensuing marital discord never reaches its boiling point, and the entire third act is composed of dialogue-less, fast-forward, rapidly spliced shots that condense years of story into one predictable combo, it seems Dupieux himself has lost patience to the banality of the script and just wanted to reach the finish line as quickly as possible."
