Simply A Masterpiece
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
I'm really sorry that this movie is actually available on Netflix for the entire world to see. I'm French and ashamed. The movie embodies the absolute worst you can do in terms of romantic comedy. It is beyond surprising that this project was actually financed. Ludivine Sagnier that I usually love can't carry the entire movie by herself. The dialogues are terrible and might be better translated. Bedos can't really act here and seems to be poorly directed. The characters are shallow and it's very difficult to get attached to their fate. We don't believe in any of them. Or any emotions. The director also actor, acting as Bedos' best friend is the absolute worse. I couldn't finish the movie and I've seen episodes of young and the restless with more pleasure than this.
Time was - La Petite Lili, Swimming Pool etc - Ludo Sagnier couldn't wait to get naked, probably reasoning 'okay, I can't act act but I can distract by flaunting the flesh' - now, yet again she confirms that she can't act fully clothed and ironically the storyline offers several opportunities (bed scenes) for her to appear legitimately, as it were, in the buff, instead of which she turns coy and makes like she's in a fifties Hollywood film where coyness was king. Amazingly it took no less than seven credited writers to snatch a suet pudding from the jaws of a soufflé mostly by miscasting. There's not a lot wrong with the premise of two ex-lovers being thrown together unexpectedly and having to share - in this case - adjoining seats on a seven-hour transatlantic flight if you overlook the fact that we've seen it before ... and before ... and before. Even so put the right actors - Julien Boisellier, say, or Gregori Derangere, with Cecile de France, Deborah Francois, Virginie Ledoyen, i.e. someone who can actually do loveliness personified and ACT and you've got yourself a pleasant film. As it stands ... well, lead balloon springs to mind
'Amour & turbulences' (= French for 'love & turbulence's') offers you a delightful, very French comedy. Clearly cut to do full justice to the talents of both its leads Ludivine Sagnier and, in particular, Nicolas Bedos.This film's tale is framed in an actual 2013-setting. Touching on many people's desire to revive for a second the loves of their adolescent days -- when life was young, beautiful & uncomplicated. To dream away from today's burden of having a family, a job, and other capturing responsibilities.The big difference: in 'Amour & turbulences' revival wins from reality. Well, that's what a film is about, isn't it? Adding such an unexpected twist provides extra delight to this delightful French comedy.
