Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald As well as ensuring that the film avoids the cloying sweetness of Hollywood's seasonal offering, Love the Coopers, the Beliers' idiosyncrasies strike a gently subversive note. Rated: 3/4 Dec 16, 2015 Full Review Paul Byrnes Sydney Morning Herald [The Belier Family] has enormous charm and humour, a real sense of warmth within the family, and a knockout finale which, of course, involves Paula's singing. Rated: 4/5 Dec 16, 2015 Full Review Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Emera is indeed a winning presence, and it would take a hard heart not to be moved by her rendition of Michel Sardou's Je Vole ... Rated: 3/5 Sep 13, 2015 Full Review Leigh Paatsch Herald Sun (Australia) Though not above tugging on the heartstrings quite hard when the mood suits, this enjoyable experience earns the right to do so keeping an earthy spirit to the fore when it counts. Rated: 3/5 Sep 11, 2020 Full Review Pablo Muñoz Espinof The deaf, the townspeople, the teenage dreams! All exaggerated but so delightfully performed! [Full Review in Spanish] Apr 25, 2020 Full Review Sebastian Zavala Kahn Cinencuentro A light and agreeable movie; it's not particularly memorable, but it's got nothing offensively bad about it either. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/4 Feb 1, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Flobine Film très touchant qui a réussi à me faire verser une larme. La fierté du père envers sa fille, vers la fin du film, est selon moi ce qu'il y a de plus touchant. La bande sonore est parfaite: Michel Sardou et son répertoire collent parfaitement à cette oeuvre. Louane est excellente dans le rôle d'une jeune femme vivant une période cruciale de sa vie tout en essayant de combler les besoins de tous ceux qui l'entourent. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/22/23 Full Review Audience Member We have all seen movies with and about handicapped people, especially blind ones, from comedies to thrillers and suspense flicks. We have seen people in wheelchairs solving crimes as well as being harassed and socially excluded just like all other groups of people suffering of one or the other problem. I personally have never been so strongly being impacted to the point of crying like a little baby by a movie about handicapped, in this case a deaf family with one daughter who can hear normally. The scene during the kids presentation in school (I don't want to go into details not to spoil it) is especially heartwarming and an absolute masterpiece by the director. I think everybody should watch this movie, especially to feel a bit more compassion to all those people who are not rarely enough being pushed aside by society. It might teach us all more humility and understanding!!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Green G Incomprehensibly dreadful. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/28/21 Full Review Audience Member Esse filme é lindo! Sensível e singelo... Uma obra prima Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I really enjoyed this heart-warming film. Louane Emera is fabulous. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A bad movie with extremely bad acting Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
