Jacquou le Croquant le film, 27 January 2007
Author: charlesxgonzalez from United States

What a waste of a film! Laurent Boutonnat should go back to directing videos...will probably want to purchase the rights to this film if it doesn't pick up ticket selling pace any time soon.

The positives: nice cinematography and the score matches up with the overall tone of the film.

However...

Gaspard Ulliel is okay as far as french actors can go...the script and the story line have a lot of holes...holes Gaspard was not able to compensate for...reflecting poor production and direction and hence, probably poor improvisation from Ulliel himself.

Believability of the story line falls many places...the 9 year old Jacquou saves the day in the film, and if you ask me...saves the film.

Laurent should have gone for an NR rating and showed some more skin. At least he would have appealed more directly to the obvious emphasis on love-making scenes versus the climax itself.

On a scale of 1 - 10, I give this film a 1. Not even worth the rental...
