      David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) The English title, I'm afraid, sums up the film. Rated: 2/5 Apr 17, 2009 Full Review George Palathingal Sydney Morning Herald Without being in the same league as last year's brilliant In Bruges, the comedy here sometimes comes from a deliciously dark place. Rated: 3/5 Apr 10, 2009 Full Review Simon Foster sbs.com.au L'emmerdeur (A Pain In The Ass) goes through the motions smoothly, even lazily, providing increasingly-intermittent smirks rather than genuine belly laughs. Aug 9, 2010 Full Review Mark Demetrius FILMINK (Australia) Alas, not for a minute does the viewer care about any character, though admittedly it's mildly diverting and intermittently funny -- and occasionally blackly or incongruously so. Apr 10, 2009 Full Review Julie Rigg MovieTime, ABC Radio National I never saw the original, I can only dimly remember the Billy Wilder version but hey, it works well enough to deliver quite a few laughs. Apr 3, 2009 Full Review Andrew L. Urban Urban Cinefile The physical comedy works well, and while the farce is perhaps oversize for the screen these days, it is nevertheless an entertaining and genial trip.

      Audience Member More annoying than funny, though it provides the occasional chuckle. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member anywere i can see this movie on the internet? Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review jesse o Not a bad movie but it isn't particularly hilarious either. I think it tries too hard to be zany and wacky and it succeeds in certain scenes, but it felt, to me, a bit forced. The cast is decent but not particularly impressive. Really this movie didn't do a lot for me despite being average. It has its moments but definitely not enough to make the movie good. Infinitely better than The Darkest Hour however. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member πολυ καλη κωμωδια!!!!!!!!!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member I was cracking up at how outrageous every scenario was. Very good movie! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A typical French comedy. Just had to laugh really loud at times :) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
