Since the general plot, etc., is pretty well discussed here, I won't bore you with the details.
This movie needs to be viewed for the love of it...not to be dissected and intellectualized.
This movie is simply a playful romp. AS Daniel Autille, one of my favorite French actors, gets deeper and deeper into his rouse he gets more and more desperate. His comedic turn is a delight to watch and proves his versatility. His last movie was the incredible "Cache".
Some of the set-ups are wonderful...who cares if some have been done before...and some are fresh and all are done with glee and panache. In fact all of the actors seem to be having fun.
One great aspect of this movie is that there is character development ... several characters are forever changed, for the better, by the end of the movie.
I have no qualms about recommending this movie to friends and film buffs alike. Just go and enjoy.
I hope some Hollywood type doesn't make an American botch job of this one.
