Audience Member Not bad, but it isn't really a comedy. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie wasn't too bad, but I think I was not the intended audience. I think muslims in France might have been. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Beau role encore pour Kad Merad! Sur mesure. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member a nice comedy/drama movie about an immigrant and how things change when its all related to your name Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Un theme interessant (un Algerien complexe qui se fait passer pour un Rital... j'ai connu un Portugais au lycee atteint du meme syndrome), quelques bons gags, un Kad Merad qui porte le film a bout de bras, mais bof... l'intrigue est previsible, on verse souvent dans la mievrerie. Totalement dispensable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Mouais... c'est du Kad et O version cheapos, un tantinet trop gnangnan... on les prà (C)fère dà (C)calà (C)s...
