    Pas si bien

    A man needs a new liver or he will die within four months!Only a transplant from his brother can save him.Unfortunately,the two men have been at odds for ten years.

    Such a subject demands : -either a black humor treatment and then it takes genius to succeed in making such a movie.

    -or an intimate rendition,displaying the subtleties of the heart and the sensitiveness.

    "Quelqu'un de bien" is a horrible film.Patrick Timsit is ,along with the other Patrick (Braoudé) the worst actor of the contemporary French cinema .Jose Garcia ,who gave a good performance in "Extension du Domaine De la Lutte" ,is as unbearable as him.Both overplay,and as far as their relationship is concerned ,you can see what they are up to from a mile off.The female parts are vulgar and only decorative.

    Disgusting,obnoxious,awful...
