night_prankster This french movie is not so bad.There's maybe not so interesting and very regular,or even a little bit Hollywood,in the beginning,but it's gonna be cool after that.If you like movies made by France,so buy this movie on DVD and watch this.That's my recommendation.The acting is good,the directing of the picture is also good enough.This is comedy and you find yourself really funny till the end of the film. " "When I was just as far as I could walkFrom here today,There was an hourAll stillWhen leaning with my head against a flowerI heard you talk.Don't say I didn't, for I heard you say--You spoke from that flower on the windowsill--Do you remember what it was you said?"

jrwp This may be indeed the worst film billed as a serious feature to have ever been made. Besides the ridiculous "love story" between two disgusting characters, the plot proceeds without giving any regard to the several propositions (some of them admittedly intriguing) which are made at the film's start. As the standards of production are up to the commercial circuit, one does not feel immediately tempted to click out the DVD and go on to some more rewarding chore. Thus proceeds the expectation that, somehow, the apparently random sequences of scenes - some of them slightly funny, mainly due to the performance of the Formula 1 retired driver - will wrap up in some slightly logical way. No way. The ending is so absurd, that I felt inclined to shoot at my TV set. Of course, this would only add injury to the insult.

isabel_towns It's so awful it's not logical; the character of Stéphane is never charming, gentle or other nice adjective, which would make me believe Frassau could fall in love with the guy. He is not even handsome, and he doesn't have the ability of saying the worst things one can imagine and still be cute and charming. He uses her, he slaps at her, and she stays with him like a puppy with his master. I must say that as a girl I was offended, to fall in love with a guy like that one has to be or mad or desperate, and very in both cases. The scenario is not beautiful; there is not even formal beauty in the takes, or something that would make the film worthy. Sorry to say this, but at least is true for me, if I could grade it with a 0 I would

EyesToSee I agree on the whole with other comments, I found them even relatively enlightening in the sense that I did not see myself the references to the great American comedy. May be I should see the movie in black and white! Nevertheless there is a commentator, I don't share the opinion, it is the one who suggests the movie can be see as a parable on french-Arab politics, it's going too far in its analysis, the movie is not the slightest taking this issue in its perspective, and at the bottom of it there is even an unpleasant possibility of racism ; let's say I agree with the commentator who (very) kindly criticizes him. No, the only question for me is : how can one believe that Isabelle Carré is a dull girl it takes so long for the conman to fall in love with ? This I can't believe. By the way, another minor questions : where all those french commentators did learn such a good English ?
