Was dein Herz dir sagt - Adieu, ihr Idioten!

This movie is a great example of the misused talent available in the French cinema industry. Subsidies are used to produce movies with no substance.

The characters (including the police) are very caricatural and the story is very improbable, making it very hard to connect/relate to it.

After a first laugh with the attempted video, I spent the rest of the film searching for real emotions.

The main characters don't seem to have a home, don't sleep, eat or drink. No sense of time either.

Who is the movie for? Given the lack of imagination in the lines/simple personality of the characters, I'd say the primary audience would be teenagers? Then, why would you have such an inappropriate ending to trivialise a serious topic?

I watched this movie at the cinema and the disappointment was general. People were rushing out to go home.

So, this one doesn't deserve a Cesar for me, regardless of how stylised it is. A movie is a story/an experience that needs to be more meaningful than this.

What a delightful touching comedy !

Great casting !

Magical mix of unlikely allies !!

Recommend viewing.

French films are a world apart -for good- and this is problably one of the very best you could watch right now. Original, imaginative and very well shot. Outstanding casting.

Sorry but I definitely could not get it. I could not say if this movie was to laugh or to wep, was it a comedy or a downbeat drama, an amusing social satyre or a gloomy story about people fighting against somethng stronger than them in a combat lost in advance? I was totally bewildered in front of this mix up. I know that's the Dupontel speciality but here, I could not make it. That doesn't mean the movie is awful, lousy or uninteresting. No, just that too much tragedy kills comedy, and too much comedy kills tragedy. You can't have both. That"s my own opinion.

In a million years I never would've come up with the plot of Albert Dupontel's César-winning "Adieu les cons" ("Bye Bye Morons" in English). The plot combines focuses on underage pregnancy, stressful work, and political activism. It does so without turning silly or preachy.

The viewer may have noticed that the movie is dedicated to Terry Jones and features a brief appearance of Terry Gilliam. Despite Monty Python's renown, I wouldn't have predicted a French dramedy casting or commemorating any of the members.

Anyway, it's a fine movie. Basically, it's about righting the wrongs. I'll have to see more of Dupontel's movies, and in the meantime I recommend this one.
