It takes this "new male" image to an absurd extreme, and the laughs are good for what ails you. Go to Full Review

05/14/2013 Cute as only the French can do. See more 03/25/2011 Les Comperes exemplifies the farcical humor the French have long been known for. The focus throughout is on the ludicrous compete-or-cooperate antics of its two male leads, who happen to be sharply contrasting "types" of potential fathers. Nothing gimmicky, nothing deep here--just satisfying entertainment. Those who liked the better known picture 3 Hommes et un Couffin (Three Men and a Cradle) (1985) will appreciate this. See more 03/06/2011 it's not relevant who the kiddo's real father is... the point is, he is definitely as resourceful as his mom :D Richard was very funny in this movie :D See more 08/26/2010 hilarious comedy thanks to the caveman brute and suicidal depressive. See more 02/03/2010 Quite a funny film with a really nice cast! It's an old French comedy but it's well done and the actors are really doing a great job! It's quite smart & the scenario is good! I had a good time. See more 07/23/2009 The Czech title of this film is "Otec and otec" i.e. "Father and Father". Jean Lucas and Francois Pignon, the protagonists of the film represented by the brilliant actors Gerard Depardieu and Pierre Richard, two might-be fathers of Tristan, a 16-year-old boy who ran away from home, are asked by the boy's mother for help in the search for Tristan. The two men are absolutely different and they cannot believe that their friend, Tristan's mother, was in love also with the other man, but gradually they made a perfectly complete searching team and at the end they became friends.... The comedy brings many funny moments as well as ideas for thinking about parentage and life. I have seen it several times and if there is a chance, I will watch it again with a big pleasure.
