    Lack of pace, with an unfinished story: looks like a draft

    These three brothers contains some good elements, but runs out of steam in its last third. The best character sketched is Pascal Legitimus and his company with Bernard Farcy as Steven. Each of the three characters played by our Inconnus embodies in an exaggerated way key characters of their time, well sketched in the first half of the film.

    The film starts well with the three brothers who meet each other, who have to cohabit even though they are socially and societally in different worlds. Some of the gags work, but the film runs out of steam over the course of the film and the three writers struggle to finish and close their story: the ending has no hysteria. The half of the film is severely lacking in pace. A third party's point of view is missing to complete the scenario and bring it out of its embryonic state.

    Amazing movie

    This movie are a very good, the mood are so funny. This film is the best of strangers. It's one of my favorite comedies. We laugh from beginning to end. The actors are of course excellent. The main characteres are a good acting.

    Funniest

    Possibly the funniest french movie I have seen in my life. Of course, one has to be found of « les inconnu »'s sense of humor. I believe this movie is a perfect introduction to their madness. Here, their story starts with the revelation of an inheritance and the chain reaction that succeeds. The "three brothers" was an instant success in France. It's no Hollywood style and the logic of it may not reach everybody's mind, except if you have been trained to laugh out loud at french humor (not as famous as french kiss, french windows, french slides and french fries (oups, liberty fries, sorry), but one of the best in the world, indeed. Enjoy.

    Pure Masterpiece

    But when you are not French you cannot review or rate this movie well. French comedy you need to understand French thats it.

    You just Never stop laughing in this movie, not even for a second ! Les Inconnus are the Greatest comedy genius in history. If you rate this one less than 9/10 then you re a Stranger or a crazy dude. This is gold 10/10.

    Not the best French comedy but still watchable

    Not much reviews on here for this very well known French comedy. It's a classic that almost everyone saw at least once in France or Belgium. Didier Bourdon, Bernard Campan and Pascal Légitimus are better known as "Les Inconnus" for their sketches. Here they are together for a movie and it's the typical humor they are known for that you can watch. I read that somebody said it was the best French comedy he ever saw. Well he's entitled to his opinion of course, but the fact is that are way better comedies than this one. For example everything done by the team of "Le Splendid" is better. But Les Trois Frères isn't bad though. To me it's an okay movie to watch once. But if you want the absolute top of French comedy you should watch Le Père Noël Est Une Ordure, Les Bronzés, Les Bronzés Font Du Ski, Les Visiteurs, Le Diner Des Cons... All those movies are way better than this one.
