[A] gruesomely unfunny and tacky comedy-farce.

There's no froth like French froth. And few French-froth-purveyors are as adept as Pierre Salvadori.

A supremely satisfying confection -- a French romantic comedy of the sort that ends with you standing outside the theatre with a dopey grin on your face.

Tautou finds a vulnerable side to her unscrupulous character, while Elmaleh... is a marvellous physical comedian whose tiniest facial expressions possess more humour than any number of pratfalls.
