Leslie Felperin Guardian This French drama about a trio of classmates who set up a prostitution ring isn't great. Rated: 2/5 Jul 24, 2014 Full Review Sophie Monks Kaufman Little White Lies Smart Ass is described on IMDB as a comedy, an idea which is the only funny thing in this intellectually and sexually bankrupt film. Rated: 1/5 Jul 24, 2014 Full Review Guy Lodge Time Out Proving Hollywood doesn't have a monopoly on randy college escapades, this unexpectedly restrained French hit has more than sex and money on its mind. Rated: 3/5 Jul 23, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Good performances by an unknown French cast - occasionally amusing and mildly disturbing! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member A very Americanized Frenchie about some fucked-up kids. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member It takes some time to build an identity for itself but in the end it's worth it. It's not a 'comedy' though. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review camille l La Creme de la Creme ressemble a s'y meprendre au niveau zero du cinema. Non content de passer au travers de tous les sujets auxquels Kim Chapiron s'attaque, le film souffre en plus du pire mal de l'oeuvre polemique : La Creme de la Creme est un film profondement ennuyeux, qui cache la vacuite de ses dialogues digne des sitcoms par de la fausse provocation et de la vraie betise. Comment ne pas s'agacer devant de tels ecueils de scenario (le nanti qui tombe amoureux d'une banlieusarde, le proxenete qui tombe amoureux de sa prostituee) en 2014? Ajoutez-y des scenes trop longues qui ne servent absolument a rien et vous avez ce qui restera comme un des plus grands navets de ces dernieres annees. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Kim Chapiron manages perfectly to capture the essence and reality of their life in this movie. The story is inexplicable but it unravels naturally. Everything element speaks the truth and just depicts what life is out there in the best way any movie could ever do. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
