Good movie but an uneven experience
21 July 2017
This is a dramedy, containing touching elements as well as funny ones, and most of it is carried off rather well. Omar Sy's acting is up to his part of over-strained and anxious single father, between this and "Chocolat" he's shown that he can be trusted with more serious stuff without problems. Most of the other actors (including the daughter) are equally up to their jobs, with the possible exception of Bertrand's "Bernie" (don't know if it's the actors', director's or writer's fault but that character was neither believable nor funny).

Which brings us to the weakest point - the comedy aspects just don't work that well here, most gags are rather cheap laughs, some not very funny at all - the drama parts are more enjoyable. Recommended all the same!
