4/5
[T]he film inadvertently sidelines the value of real world femininity as something that has to be shed in order to attain power. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
I Am Not An Easy Man has some winning portions in the strong comedic moments and Ferdane's spectacular performance, but ultimately its interesting concept goes nowhere. Go to Full Review
Renee Schonfeld Common Sense Media 05/15/2018

French romcom with hilarious twist; sex, swearing, drinking. Go to Full Review

You've seen many better attempts to deal with gender politics in romantic comedies, but you've definitely seen worse. Go to Full Review

Julian P @JulianPoulter Jul 13 Yes, superb. Of course a little contrived and skipping over some big barriers to a female dominated world but brilliantly scripted and acted with, of course, a lot of important messages! See more Nicole H @RT56065325 Jun 21 Extremely accurate. Didn't like the ending. See more E. D @JohnSmith195 10/16/2024 The best movie I have watched so far. See more Ann W @RT24430785 09/23/2021 Amazing! I had low expectations for this but it ended up being and amazing movie. The only thing I didn't like was the ending, which was king of confusing, not sure I understood well. See more 09/15/2020 Hi, good afternoon. Here, is an argument, about the way in which one treats the world. Particularly, how coded a lot of the etiquette is, surrounds gender. A chauvinist man, has a hit on the head- and is transported to an alternative universe, where women run the show. Excuse me. As with, some other things, after the special effects, or device, has worn off... It all comes down to the skill, with which you can play romantic comedy, (if that's what you're doing). Suggestions: I think, basically what this is, is: a friend comes over, and has a massive rant or go, and you are caught up with it, and applaud at the end. However, I found it a bit coarse. I felt there was some confusion- the premise wasn't seen through, enough. If you say men and women are swapped, then what you're not saying, is women at the top behave like men. You are saying, here is a woman doing , what a man does- and how does that look? showing up, the behaviour. Inconsistencies here. And you have to be, really very funny, to make someone laugh about something like this, and sustain it. Sorry, to decry. Thank you very much. See more 05/10/2020 This film is wonderfully mind-bending. Both meaningful and laugh-out-loud funny in both simple and sophisticated ways. I'm proud of the filmmakers and actors for stating the obvious, which, unfortunately, needs to be repeatedly stated, but doing it in such an entertaining way. I loved it and am so glad it exists. I'm telling all my friends to watch it! See more Read all reviews
