Critics Consensus

This farcical French comedy of errors is well-acted, but the absurdities feel too forced to make such a light confection work.

Richard Nilsen

Arizona Republic

A light, entertaining comedy with little, if any, redeeming value, other than a few good laughs.

Rated: 3/5

Carrie Rickey

Philadelphia Inquirer

Although the ingredients are excellent, the result is an overcooked comedy more often provoking indigestion than laughter.

Terry Lawson

Detroit Free Press

A lightweight farce that remains enjoyable primarily for the time spent with Auteuil.

Rated: 3/4

Salvadori and his fellow screenwriters invent clever complications to keep us amused.

This film has a high production value, but it is one of the least funny French comedies I have seen. Daniel Autueil is a fine actor who is reduced to being a masochistic fool by a loser who is a neurotic and an even bigger fool. The plot line is improbable, tortuous and leads almost nowhere. The neurotic embosses his grandmother's raincoat with the word SALOPE for breaking up his relationship - a tasteless attempt at ribald humor. And the ending falls flat, accompanied by the deliberate destruction of two cars. A total waste of time and talent.

Divertidísima comedia, en la que un esquizofrénico y un ayudador compulsivo y una mujer de la que están enamorados los dos generan una cinta de lo más entretenido que he visto. Aunque no la encontrarás tan fácilmente pues es francesa y data de 2003, vale la pena buscarla y verla.
