All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

A Catholic French couple sees their life upside down when their four daughters get married to men of different religion and origins. Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu? benefits from a great perfomance from Christian Clavier and most of the comic relief comes from him and works 100% also the story works without getting boring or even racist. It's not perfect tho cause i think that the husbands were the weakest element of the plot and don't get me wrong they do a good job in terms of acting it's just that their characters get some screen time and their arguements at times were extremely silly. But Clavier shines and the jokes do land for the most part and fans of the French Cinema won't be disappointed. (7.5/10)

This flick makes fun of the racism the traditional Christians have against persons of other religions, races and both of them together. In short is a great comedy I laugh my ass off and highly recommended to everyone ,apart from fanatics who lack the brain to understand the joke! So the story follows the Catholic family Verneuil, whose couple have raise their four daughter with the principals of Catholicism and Degoalism ,but and here is the comedy they have married each a different person of race and religion. The reactions of the elder against their sons in law ,are the jewel of the movie because are showing the hypocrisy of these people who call themselves Christians and they treat those who are different to them in a xenophobic manner. The fun comes from the fact that the main principal of Christianity is "love the other as I loved you" and see those people ,who say they are devout Christians ,act in such a way ,shows to me at least that you can learn to someone the principals of love ,tolerance and so on ,but to make them apply to their every day life ... is an other problem altogether! So if anyone say that he would react in a more civilized way, then I dare him to put himself or herself in to the shoes of the elderly Verneuil!If only the critics weren't so hard to it ,which shows that Christians aren't yet so good in applying their doctrine's main principals very well. Whatever just try small steps at the time.

Superb comedy, full of grace, good quality humor, fine taste, and with an excellent Christian Clavier in the leading role. No taboo is spared - be it of the French, Jews, Chinese, Arabs, of Africans on others, as well as on themselves. Gentle satirical approach of mimicked "open-mindness" that always proves to be shadowed by at least a little bit of racism. Also romantic, from the start to the end. Beautiful story on an apparently impossible family, which today's Western Europe - and especially France - makes possible. For understanding everything in depth, review history on Arafat, Bokassa, Idi Amin Dada, etc. Not historical, as Louis de Funes' Rabbi Jacob, but not far away from it. A en mourir de rire! (The French for To die from laughing!)

A successful member of the very popular make-fun-of-racism-comedy sub-genre (earlier entries include, among others, monster hit "Intouchables", "Paulette", "Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis" and "Les Invincibles"), this comedy shines not so much by originality or surprises - most gags and the general plot are very obvious choices - as by flawless execution. The rhythm of the gags is relentless - punch, punch, punch ... - not a single boring moment - and I really liked the cast and characters - a bunch of very lovable people, and who's not so from the start will have been turned over to the bright side by the end. Altogether, a rather sweet mix, but recommended for the nice performances and the quick-footed pace!
