1/5
The “big comedy set pieces”, including a final-reel depiction of assault with a deadly weapon, fall completely flat. Go to Full Review Jonathan Romney Financial Times Oct 2
2/5
The whole thing is cosily insipid and yet, thanks to its star, irreducibly weird. Go to Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian Sep 30

A deeply peculiar misfire. Go to Full Review Kat Halstead Common Sense Media Oct 6
4/5
This light, heartwarming movie is full of charm from start to finish. Go to Full Review Markie Robson-Scott The Arts Desk Oct 4
3/5
Its goofiness works, some of the time, partly because of Malkovich’s French, which is fluent yet delivered in a halting drawl with an English/American accent so bad it’s almost good. Go to Full Review Jaylan Salah InSession Film Oct 3
B

Cathy D Jul 30 Delightful film. A touching story about people with real dialog, superb acting. No CGI or special effects needed. This is the kind of story Hollywood used to do, Not so much anymore. Go see it and don't let the subtitles put you off. Malkovich at his best. See more PC :) Jul 3 entertaining ...sweet !

They don't make movies like this one very often. Delightful and funny. You will leave the theater happy and wish you could be a part of their group. Malkovich was, per usual, outstanding!
