[edit] Plot
It would be correct, but highly misleading, to say that Jeux d'enfants is the story of a game of truth or dare gone wildly out of control. The games (jeux) begin when Julien and Sophie are children (enfants), but as they grow older they intensify and become more twisted and dangerous. Their likewise escalating love strives to be expressed in a way other than through the games.
Love Me If You Dare is comparable to In July or A Life Less Ordinary, since they all can be classified as romantic comedy, yet contain dark themes not typical of romantic comedies.
