Audience Member Average, despite its all-round soapy, melodramatic tone, with the occasional confusing reaction from the protagonist (along with the sometimes overacting by Rachida Brakni). Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautiful love story, extraordinary cast, heartwarming story ! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Excelente soundtrack!! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member trop simpliste trop fade c est mal joue next Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Clichà (C) de A à Z ! Le scà (C)nario est plus que prà (C)visible. Dialogues faits de formules prà (C)conçues dà (C)goulinantes de joli messages. Le tout servi par des acteurs qui rivalisent pour être celui qui aura le ton le plus monocorde et la plus grande absence de jeu. Je me suis rarement autant ennuyà (C) au cinà (C)ma. A part le maquillage tout est mauvais dans ce film (même les micros cravate sont mal dissimulà (C)s sous les vêtements). Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Steve R Good story about courage, perseverance, and overcoming difficulties. I quite liked this movie.
