Middle-aged Parisian bachelor Luis Costa (Alain Chabat) is in no rush to get married. But, when his devoted mother, Geneviève (Bernadette Lafont), and five sisters agree that he should settle down, they set Luis up for a series of doomed dates. Luis soon tires of dining out with strangers, so he arranges for his friend's sister, Emmanuelle (Charlotte Gainsbourg), to pose as his fiancée. Conceived with the hope of getting his family off his back, the plan comically complicates Luis's life.

01/10/2018 Fun film about love. See more 01/10/2018 Just watched this on TF1 tonight. Disappointingly unfunny; the main structural problem is that the central character is irredeemably loathsome, and unless the audience secretly sympathizes with the protagonist in his predicament, the cause is lost. Perhaps realising this script failure, the producers cast the genial Alain Chabat in the role - in the hope that he will save the situation. This can only work for those who come to the film fully aware of Chabat's previous work - as most French people will. It is however a cheap trick, and it failed on me. Gainsbourg, nevertheless, is magnetic and the whole ensemble does its level best as the plot winds itself towards the inevitable redemption through true love. The French release date incidentally, was 2006.

See more 01/10/2018 great movie.. the last thing you want to do is playing love.. coz you'll probably end up falling in it.. ;) See more 01/10/2018 Prete "Moit" Ta Main... ah la la.. En tout cas, superbe comedie francaise, une de mes preferees depuis bien longtemps. C'est toujours un plaisir de regarder ce film, Chabat et Gainsbourg vont tres bien ensemble.
