Ice Cream Headache

Warning: Spoilers
There were several plus points as far as I was concerned; Danielle Thompson working with her father Gerard Oury again and Sabine Azema and Pierre Arditti, arguably one of the most consistent pairings in French cinema. Not a lot of originality plot-wise; Azema is an ex-spy out of the game for a decade but persuaded to take on one more mission which wouldn't be all that bad if hubby (Arditti) were not almost psychotically jealous, especially since on the current mission she is posing as the wife of a handsome hunk and is obliged to lie to Arditti. Naturally he discovers that she is not where she said she was going and sets out to catch her inflagrante. That's basically all there is to it and in lesser hands it would be the wrong side of ho-hum but we are, of course, talking Thompson, Azema and Arditti or, to put it another way, Class.
