The Review

I could never understand French humor, maybe it’s their language, but I could never get the punchline.

For me, this movie, tries too hard in the comedy department.

The film came out as if it’s trying to force their bland of French humor down my throat, and I didn’t like that.

It was really uncomfortable for me watching this one, and I really did try to be open minded.

The Good

• There were some good laughs

The Bad

• Crude jokes
• Unrealistic storyline
