Fantastique!!!, 18 August 1999
Author: David Benarrous (david.benarrous@tvguide.com) from Tulsa, Oklahoma

I loved this movie when I saw it the first time a long time ago, and loved it again recently. Depardieu and Richard really are the Laurel and Hardy of french films, and this movie has a whistled song line that will not leave your head for years. A must see, especially if you saw the remake "Father's Day" which used the greatest comic talents in american film, and still didn't come close to the original.
