Featured reviews
I almost never laugh with comedies, because the jokes are mostly so obvious. Here the good ones are not. I am giving it a ten, because it made me laugh, also cry a little bit, and also think about my own relationships. All you need from an easy movie. It is a ten for a comedy that makes you at least chuckle many many times.
I am 35 minutes into the film and so far it is a difficult viewing. People who think this is good and funny must be the filmmakers themselves? None of the characters is likable. This is not cinema but unfunny literature/theater. The 3 stars out of 10 are for the crew's courage to finish the shoot.
Very entertaining and funny movie with a good take on how to tell a story directly from the main characters mind and thoughts at all times. Some scenes are quite creative and nice to watch. The movie is also relatable on how one would think through various events and the anxiety one can feel. The movie is fast paced and most of the movie is narrated by the main character, which can feel a bit heavy at times, but overall a very well done movie. The ending is up for interpretation and a very good ending in my opinion.
This movie is full of charm and extremely subtle.
The main character is played by a VERY talented young actor from the renowned Comedie Francaise, which bring all the subtilitiesof the script as an enjoyable jewel!
The story is about "which Speech (discours) shalI deliver at my sister's wedding ?"and the several angles through which this shy but talenetd brother might articulate his speech, A real jewel. Don't know if the English subtitles are good enough to convey the subtilities of the monologues!

Such kind of films should not be marked a comedy
It's not a comedy, it's a film about someone's life. I've been in a cinema and heard other spectators. If there's laughter twice over whole of the film ... it's either bad comedy or not a comedy at all.
