Sorry, this movie sucks

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

I don't know why this is only averaging above 5, it is a great romantic comedy with 6 main characters, 2 males and 4 females in or around 30 years old. The tribulations of a man who looks each night to use his talents and conquer a new conquest, another who wants the romantic ideal, are best friends they try and support each other, teach each other in their own ways. Can't say much more about that as it might give the movie away. Then their is the 4 females made up of friends including one sister who, to me, is the most sensible of them all and she is deaf and in a well chair. It has some good laughs, i would say more comedy however there is plenty of romance and the enlisting is just as you want it to be. I think the male leads are fantastic, they have you feeling every inch of their struggle (maybe I see it more because I am a man) however I see very much the portrayal that the women see of us men folk and the hardships that go along with us. They say women are fickle, in this movie I think it is the other way around, maybe part of the generational changes of how men act/are told to act/want to act, it's all to confusing and that last sentence sums up this movie perfectly. Sometimes us men might read to much into how we are supposed to act and what we are supposed to do. Some may call it a chick flick and if all you ever watch is the rugby, the horse racing, the boxing and speed racing, then yes this is a chick flick. I consider myself a man and like sports too, but this is light, funny and even the ending is not shall I say heavy, just a great movie and the actors although not greatly familiar to me (English speaker here) I found the character so very believable. Good job all around with story, directing and filming. I really don't know why this is rating at 5's, yes it is not Star Wars, it is not supposed to be, it is filmed with finesse, it does not need FX, it is lighthearted and smooth, entertaining all the way which is needed for me as I need to read the subtitles so it has to keep me entertained and it does. Congratulations to all involved in it. It is not a Cane winner but a great movie to watch, maybe if your doing a dinner and in home DVD night with a new significant other.

I downloaded this movie this summer in order just to watch and forget. Didn't want to watch, cause I thought it would be one more romantic story with a weak plot. But... I watched... It turned out, that it's not a simple story. I couldn't even diviner that it could be a good comedy with sense. Something fresh and new, good humour, brilliant acting. I really enjoyed it. It's about love and friendship. This film teaches us not to be hooked on making our life close to those misty-eyed soap-operas. All romantic stories definitely can't contain only something good. And I'm glad that one of the main character understood it. Not the best, but a good film.

Michel has always admired the way his parents met by chance in London, something that always is told at their anniversary for all that want to hear again the story. After all, they have led a wonderful marriage. He wants above all to find the perfect woman that way, as well. Michel's well meaning friend, Vincent, a divorce lawyer, has seen his own marriage end sadly, but he wants to give his pal the semblance of a chance meeting that hopefully will bring him happiness.Vincent decides to put on a plan which involves Angele, the gorgeous athletic coach for handicapped people. Vincent conspires with Sylvain, Angele's friend into an inane plan that will set the stage for the would be lovers to meet, and hopefully fall in love. Like all the best laid plans, Michel and Angele get to know one another, instantly fall for each other, but alas, Michel realizes the conspiracy behind meeting Angele and the lovers never get a chance to develop a relationship until both realize they were meant for one another.A harmless French sex comedy directed by Domenique Farrugia and Arnaud Lemort, who also co-wrote the screen treatment. There are funny moments in the film which is pleasant enough to sit through. The casting of Clovis Cornillac, a young actor that has an easygoing personality and who is a skilled comedian. Opposite him is beautiful Virginie Efira playing Angele. The supporting players, specially Manu Payet and Shirley Bousquet contribute to the enjoyment of this sunny comedy.
