El brindis

Very entertaining and funny movie with a good take on how to tell a story directly from the main characters mind and thoughts at all times. Some scenes are quite creative and nice to watch. The movie is also relatable on how one would think through various events and the anxiety one can feel. The movie is fast paced and most of the movie is narrated by the main character, which can feel a bit heavy at times, but overall a very well done movie. The ending is up for interpretation and a very good ending in my opinion.

It's a comedy that brings not outloud laughter but rather smiles as feeling the main character is confiding in you !

The main character lets you in his thoughts and suggests a number of ways the storyline could develop . Quite refreshing.

Man whose girlfriend wants a "pause" in their relationship is then asked to do something he is pretified at the prospect of doing: giving a speech at his sister wedding.

Poor man already has enough in his plate trying to sort out his relationship in "pause" !

So he confides in the viewer what he might or might not do and shows the various scenarios.

Quite an enjoyable movie.

Such kind of films should not be marked a comedy It's not a comedy, it's a film about someone's life. I've been in a cinema and heard other spectators. If there's laughter twice over whole of the film ... it's either bad comedy or not a comedy at all.

French cinema, and historically European cinema overall, often embraces a more unconventional and experimental style compared to that of Hollywood. This film is a perfect example of that.

The setup for the plot is just genius. It mainly takes place at a dinner table, with a guy imagining different scenarios, and it works so well and is so well written and funny. The script is very clever and just perfect, and the actors all do an incredible job.

It all leads up to a fun climax that I will not spoil, but is definitely a masterpiece that should be experienced. In a theater if possible, that's where I watched it.

I had a good time watching this simple comedy in the form of unsaid and criticism of social conventions. I laughed well. I would recommend it. Good one.
