I saw this film the first day it came out to the general public. I had seen some previews and interviews on TV with the main actors but I must say that whatever I had seen or heard did not compare at all with the film itself. Firstly, the titles are very imaginative and quite different. The musical track is very interesting. Even if there are no catching musical pieces it is just to the point without being too much. Now for the story itself, the beginning of the film is quite interesting as a police movie and as good and ever better than some I've seen. When you get into the plot itself you never stop laughing and even to the tears sometimes. The actors are fantastic and Louis-José Houde is amazing in his first important role. Those who have seen him in his one-man show will find he is quite natural with some of the same mimics we are used to. Michel Côté is once more incredible as usual. You will discover a great actor in Patrick Drolet as well as all of the others actors. The pictures, especially when they are in therapy in the woods are quite spectacular. I heard some not so good comments coming out of the theater but they came from what I would call older frustrated men who cannot relate to the new way with parents and children.
Through the years I saw all three of the "Les boys" movies. Just like most sequels, Les boys II was not so good. But this third film (and apparently the last) was the best of all three movies. As far as I am concerned, the side stories add a more personal and intimate touch about some characters in the film, even touching at times.
The music was very good and the idea of inserting some recent pop hits was very good, just like in "Moulin Rouge". Finally, for the actors, they were all good but Patrick Huard and Marc Messier were both excellent. This is a definitely a film to be recommended.
