      Audience Member Tellement de creativité et d'inventivité dans ce film, on reconnait la le vrai talent des artistes de France. Un grand Bravo ! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Best French comedy movie ever, really, french movie are most like not funny among the comedy, but this one, have too many humor. (I'm French btw) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member The french counterpart of comedies like airplane and hot shots. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member It's the most stupid movie ever, and I bloody love it!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Reminiscent in style to the Zucker brothers films "La cite de la peur" is a parody that throws so many jokes at you (sometimes at the same time) some of them have to work. Fortunately for this film and anyone lucky enough to have seen it almost all the jokes work and this is one of the funniest parodies out there. (Specially amusing is Gerard Darmon as the narcissistic police detective Bilaes). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Every adult in France quotes this movie with great pleasure. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
