Best movie of this year hands down!
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Making a good Comedy is unfortunately a lost art. Many tries but very few succeed. Now, even more than ever all comedies are alike. Tasteless blend of overused clichés and situations. Slapstick humour and gags you spotted from miles away.French are usually exceedingly good at making bad comedies the last 20 years.But not this time... I approach this title reluctantly as I was sure it will be everything I expected. A few funny joke here and there lost in a sea of banality and reprocessed gimmicks.And man was I wrong. The biggest strength of this movie is being unexpected. Sure there's clichés, but clichés with a twist. A few WTF moments. And many well delivered joke (especially from Helene de Fougerolles) "Ride me like a burro" and more.The directing is also quite convincing for a first movie. The acting is real good for a comedy (although most characters are pretty straight forward) and the writing is really innovating with a fast paced storytelling.I heartily recommend this movie to any comedy fans as it is a breath of fresh air inside the cramped room that is the whole genre today.
I can see, why quite a few people didn't like it. This movie is indeed silly. But if you endorse it's silliness (is that a word?), than you will a very amusing and entertaining movie here, that does not pull any puns (or strays away from red stuff).Most of the characters on hand here might not be really likable, but contrary to other movies, this still kinda works in favor of the movie. The only really recognizable face being that of Tcheky K. in the movie for me, this also worked quite well. The actors did a well enough job of portraying characters that are meant to be almost one sided. But the dialogue and the situations they get involved in, have a really independent feel and spirit to it, that I just couldn't help myself but just love this movie.It's a great little low budget movie that could (and did). Hopefully you won't take it too seriously and just enjoy it for what it is. A very entertaining low budget genre picture, with quite a few cool ideas.
