Nope, nope.

I love French comedies. Louis de Funès, Bourvil, Pierre Richard, all the French comedy classics. But this movie - it's just a big no-no. I tried. I watched 5 minutes for sure, maybe a bit more, but I could not reach full 10 minutes after the opening sequence. It was just extremely boring. Maybe the fun starts later, I don't know and I don't have any reason nor desire to wait that long. Nothing in this movie caught my eye - not the opening sequence, not the first five minutes of acting, not the music. Everything was just boring. I don't like to sound that way, but there are such movies, rarely but exist. Waste of time. Not the typical good comedie francaise.
A Comedic Gem

I enjoyed this a lot. It's a good, solid upbeat comedy with an engaging plot and relatable characters.
Despite the fact it is predominantly a comedy, the film also deals with more serious issues. For example, what happens to a person when they become homeless, how their lives can quickly fall apart and how they can lose access to services that most people take for granted.
All of the cast play their parts well, in particular Antoine Bertrand (as Brindille) and Côme Levin (as La Flèche). Cinematography, production and direction are all of a good standard, showing what can be achieved with a relatively small budget.
As with any non-English language film, seek out the subtitled version as opposed to the dubbed one. I made the mistake of watching the English-dubbed version first. I am not a French person and I only speak basic French but the idea of watching a French film dubbed over with ill-fitting American accents is nothing short of sacrilege. Needless to say, the dubbing misses out on a lot of the nuances and is best avoided.
Overall, this is a very entertaining comedy and can certainly hold its own against any major release from this year. It may become something of a hidden gem so give it a watch if you get a chance - you will not be disappointed.
