It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

The plot was clear from the beginning, but some parts of the movie did not seem that important and were not so funny either. I have watch a couple of French movies but this one was not up to those standards. It seemed like you had seen almost all of the scenes before in other movies, but some were new. The new ones were the funniest scenes because you did not know what to expect. Some areas of the movie were great. However, some were just dumb and very cringe. The main female character was descent, but she was sometimes just annoying to listen to and her actions were infuriating. She seemed like a person I have met before but I do not really think that her personality matched everything about the movie. The main male character was actually funnier than her. He made the movie better and more interesting. I really liked that there were subtitles, because it made it easier to understand everything they were saying in French and also made it easier to know when they were talking French and when they were talking English. Basically, the movie was mostly entertaining but there were some parts that were just boring and cringe worthy.

Hollywoo is probably not a movie to watch with your grandparent. In this movie, get ready to watch a dodgy love movie, see cringe-worthy jokes, find a predictable ending and absurd relationships. It was not good. However, if you are an English student learning french, it has a good range of difficult vocabulary to learn. As a whole, this movie has a cringe factor of 11/10, sad jokes and about 10 minutes too long. To be fair, the acting was well done and I liked the concept of switching back and forth between English and french. So, i would rate this movie a 6/10 because it is definitely not the best movie I've seen, but not the worst by far.

Get ready to cringe!The movie was pretty good and funny although it was very predictable, the movie was very slow in some areas. The actors were alright but sometimes it became weird instead of funny. Overall I recommend to watch the movie because it is very good and I laughed a lot. My favorite character was Pakistan security guard since he was very funny. The movie was pretty good and funny although it was very predictable, the movie was very slow in some areas.

This movie is made by French people, for French people !! It wasn't made in an international purpose. The Americans and British won't be able to understand every subtleties. Anyway, I'm French and I loved every second of it ! It's funny, but very intelligent and there are some excellent critics too. I'm really sad for those who can't appreciate it, but every country has its humorists. It is such a subjective matter in the first place, if you change the country it's even more difficult ! I don't (and can't) judge the humorists in other countries than mine because I don't really have the tools to do so. And I guess it's the same almost every single time in the other way around. Florence Foresti is a great comedian and a great person. But still, her audience is essentially french and will remain that way because it's a very complicated and beautiful language. I just want to say : Bravo Madame Foresti !!!
