Les trois frères

This movie are a very good, the mood are so funny. This film is the best of strangers. It's one of my favorite comedies. We laugh from beginning to end. The actors are of course excellent. The main characteres are a good acting.

Possibly the funniest french movie I have seen in my life. Of course, one has to be found of « les inconnu »'s sense of humor. I believe this movie is a perfect introduction to their madness. Here, their story starts with the revelation of an inheritance and the chain reaction that succeeds. The "three brothers" was an instant success in France. It's no Hollywood style and the logic of it may not reach everybody's mind, except if you have been trained to laugh out loud at french humor (not as famous as french kiss, french windows, french slides and french fries (oups, liberty fries, sorry), but one of the best in the world, indeed. Enjoy.

Just plain hilarious... Even though the last 15 minutes are a bit less comical (you have to find an ending to these comedies... it's very often the less fun part), you need to see this movie... The actors are good and a lot of jokes made me go wild... even though I am unsure of their worth if they are to be translated... For all who speak French it's a must!! 9/10

Not much reviews on here for this very well known French comedy. It's a classic that almost everyone saw at least once in France or Belgium. Didier Bourdon, Bernard Campan and Pascal Légitimus are better known as "Les Inconnus" for their sketches. Here they are together for a movie and it's the typical humor they are known for that you can watch. I read that somebody said it was the best French comedy he ever saw. Well he's entitled to his opinion of course, but the fact is that are way better comedies than this one. For example everything done by the team of "Le Splendid" is better. But Les Trois Frères isn't bad though. To me it's an okay movie to watch once. But if you want the absolute top of French comedy you should watch Le Père Noël Est Une Ordure, Les Bronzés, Les Bronzés Font Du Ski, Les Visiteurs, Le Diner Des Cons... All those movies are way better than this one.

It's the "Inconnus"'s first movie for the screen and they made a funny and entertaining comedy. But it's not sufficient to consider it as a masterpiece. Three men who are very different are discovering that they are brothers. They 're also discovering that they're going to inherit a fortune that used to belong to their mother. But the inheritance is cancelled and they must escape from the police, the notaries, the bailiffs. Now that they are in the street, they've got to beg for but at the same time, they're learning to know each other better.... The film won the Oscar for the First Best film in 1996 but did it really deserve it? The "Inconnus"'s performance is quite convincing and each of their character's personnality is well portrayed. It's a pity that they often ham it up. The screenplay is a bit of a mess and I am under the impression that it's a pretext for a succession of sketches where they are talking about leading subjects nowadays: unemployement, immigration etc.... Due to a big number of these sketches, the film never seem to end. Moreover, the secondary and minors actors are bad used. On one hand, they are left to themselves, like the notary; on the other hand, they're falling into the caricature like Rougemont who is the man who puts Didier Latour up, or the racist bailiff. I also noticed that most of the actors were talking very fastly and so it was difficult to understand them. Nevertheless, the film is often funny thanks to the dialogues and the comical situations but they aren't deprived of vulgarity. To sum up: a film which could have been better if it had been more controled.
