Hannah Brown Jerusalem Post There are a few funny moments here and there, especially some politically incorrect lines where characters reveal that they believe the stereotypes about each other. But no one here seems quite real. Mar 21, 2016 Full Review Glenn Sumi NOW Toronto So few Gallic films get a theatrical run in Toronto, it's a farce that this offensive, unfunny comedy should be one of them. Rated: 1/5 Dec 18, 2015 Full Review Chris Knight National Post Writer Guy Laurent and writer/director Philippe de Chauveron have taken the germ of an idea and let it fester into something truly sickness-inducing. Rated: 1/4 Mar 5, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member There's something about French comedies that involve a family drama that makes them so entertaining to watch. This is the case with this movie as well. I enjoyed it a lot. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member It's astonishing how this film appears to be misinterpreted outside France, where it got a great popular success. While far from being anywhere near sensational, it's a funny enough and cute comedy which does not convey but mocks stereotypes. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Very funny. Ending a bit disappointing. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member you have to know about the new France and all its racial polemics -- but this is a very funny comedy ... well written, very well acted, it makes fun of all ethnic stereotypes equally and ends with the requisite happy ending and a message of tolerance and understanding which is much needed (if not in vogue) everywhere Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Très bon. Beaucoup ri. Me fait penser à la scène où tout le monde se gâte dans Do the right thing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw this at a Jewish Film Festival and the Jewish crowd was laughing it up! This is only offensive to those who are perpetually offended and don't realize that laughing at our differences and insecurities is the way to make a multi-cultural society work.
