an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
I will speak here about a totally forgettable comedy drama where you find the usual stuff so common in the French cinema now. Economical crisis in a garment factory in which the boss's daughter is employed to optimize the employee's performance with ergonomic matters. The girl falls for one of the employees, who divorces from his wife. Nothing exceptional here, no surprise at all, only entertaining whilst you prepare dinner or iron your clothes. Clichés galore, so French, too much for my taste anyway. Social and emotional movie that I will forget in a few minutes. But good acting, nothing to argue about this. I don't regret to have watched it; we never know in French features, you may find a gem from time to time. But not here. That's the name of the game.
