Lack of good storyline.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

As a young woman I was nauseated to see how one dimensional the Louna character was and the whole premise was like something out of a bad 1970s exploitation film. I literally know and have never known any women or girls who exist like this creature Louna. She exists merely as a plot device fantasy object to titillate middle aged men who think they have a hope in hell of bedding a beautiful young 17 year old. It is creepy beyond belief and the fact that she would want to have sex with her dad's best friend with her dad nearby has a incestuous kind of undertone that I found repellent. Trust me, any normal girl does not want to be having sex with someone with her dad in the same house or nearby. The fact that it's her dad's old best friend she wants to bone is just so much worse. At least the Marie character (the only convincing performance) calls her dad a pervert and her friend a slut for it, as any young girl would whose best friend sleeps with her old dad. He is said to be 45 in the film but Cassel looks older (because he is, he would have been late 40s when this was filmed). CLuzet's naff depiction of being an old pervert on the beach ogling young women's bums over his sunglasses didn't work at all. I wonder why he took this gig as he comes off as too respectable to be convincing as an old leering codger.Cassel's character's feeble protestations at Louna's demented seduction techniques are pathetic and don't come off as comedy but bizarro tragedy. Yeah avoid, at least I didn't pay to see this turd.This film has absolutely no place in 2017. Gross.

If you read a couple of things about this, then you know what direction this is going to. And the whole setup might annoy some people, because it does take its time to introduce the characters, make us aware of who is who and their general relationship with each other. I think it's important to know those things, others may disagree, just know where you are standing with this.Of course not all decisions by the characters are really good and appropriate. Otherwise we wouldn't have a movie and an issue in itself. The female in question has Lolita qualities and you can see where one would at least have thoughts that might not be in ones own best interest. Things are not always black and white, and people do certain things out of the spark of the moment (or because they were drunk). The ending ... well I'll let you decide what to make of it ...

I saw this at the french Film Festival in Sydney, 2016. I always go to see anything Francois Cluzet is in, but am afraid this year he disappointed. He seemed to be sleep-walking through this. I found the situations he was depicted in fairly tedious and not funny at all, though it is billed as a comedy.Alice Isaaz is the stand-out in this. She offers a nuanced role and view about the situation, which let's face it, is as old as the hills (Lolita - type seductress and older man who 'can't resist'). Isaaz's character does remind her 45- year old father that HE is the adult. "Lolita's" doe-eyes and pouting were grating. Her's was a one-note performance. Cassell was workmanlike, but the character was beyond irritating. His inability to say "No" to a 17 year old temptress was incredibly annoying. The sight of the fading studs walking u the beach eyeing off pert young female flesh was annoying to say the least. I didn't find it funny on the whole, though there were a couple of moments. Was killing the neighbour's dog instead of a wild boar meant to be funny? It wasn't. I would not bother to seek this out at a cinema. Maybe a DVD on a rainy afternoon.

I can't believe how bad this movie is and how bad François Cluzet, George Bush look alike in it. A very annoying, phony, stupidly written and directed movie. I didn't even make it half way through before it almost put me to sleep. No character depth, I didn't connect or relate to the characters at all. Empty dialogs that lack true emotion. All actors were really bad, but François Cluzet was the worst. Unbelievable for a famous actor like him. I though he was not bad in The Untouchables. I generally enjoy French cinema, but they were following Hollywood steps lately producing junk after junk like this one or "Tu veux... ou tu veux pas?" for example.
