RATED 8/10 Language: French Source: Amazon Prime RECOMMENDED

Full and full fun, if you know the French history and the characters, you will enjoy more. I was laughing like anything throughout the movie. The way they take on history is so fun to watch, the fantasy angle is very well suited for the main character.

I am wondering "is it possible to make movie like this in India"... Just relax about your leaders and enjoy the fun...

Absolutely loved this little french film, once I found the online subtitles, it made it even better. It was funny, pertinent and informative and I watched it twice. An absolute gem.

I watched this because it looked fun. However the humour masked issues, which are assumed to have been left in past - but still impact the lives of women. Although entertaining and a lot of fun, I ended up feeling (as a man) very much humbled by the experience - especially when faced with some very upsetting contextual historical information in the end credits.

The character is a pain in the ass and you wanna punch her constantly, but the idea is really good. Especially with current events in the US for example, more woman need to see this.

It's not all bad. The premise is intriguing. The dialogue...especially the lines given to the lead (Caroline Vigneaux) is witty. And speaking Ms. Vigneaux, she's hilarious. A gifted physical comedian who delivers visually as well as verbally. She's a joy to watch. And the pacing is good too...right up to the point where the viewer starts says 'OK, I get it. I got it 20 minutes ago. Now, wrap this up.' Only the movie doesn't. It keeps going on and on and on. Neither I nor my wife could make it to the end. We agreed that we couldn't take another minute.

What went wrong? Maybe it was the overtness of it all. Maybe the fact that after the first 20 minutes of the film, it had said all it had to say. Or maybe it was just the lack of subtlety. We both wanted to like the film. But too much is always too much.
