I was not too enthusiastic when I started to play the tv recording of this film, but I kept watching. First I thought I recognised an actor from 'chez les chtis' Yes it was Kad Merad. I kept watching and for me things brightened. The beaches footages reminded me a little of J tati's movie. I would not say it would be a very popular movie of today's taste and you'd need a few years under your belt to appreciate some moments from it. I did, I did like the way it was different from what's on today. And to each its own! I see some critics speaking of mediocrity, perhaps it could be seen this way. But it is a comedy and it does gets laughs out of you unless you're made of stone. So this is what a comedy is designed to do - Someone else saw live animal tortured! Really...What kind of world to they want to live in? Have they ever stepped on an ant? Democracy will become Democrazy. Don't take anyone's word for it find it for yourself and perhaps like me you'll have a great but forgettable time
