I am frenc a si watch the original version Not original, not funny, Bad acting.. thé story id basic, seems to be written by a 5 Year ils kid.. What s the moral in this story ? You Can stop to ne a loser if you win a gold medal ? By thé way ? Who Can really believe they really won thé contest ?? Lellouche has just replaced the stage by a pool.. no need to spend More Time ..watch the full monty.

I found it a little boring but some jokes where nice, specially if you speak French. The third act saved the movie for me.

This movie just melts your heart. It starts out a but avant garde, but moves on to become one of the most uplifting films I've seen in a very long time. It's like if Cocoon, The Bad News Bears and The Full Monty had a lovechild in 2018 and gave us this comedy film of 2018. It is beautifully shot, written and acted film that is exactly what we are all looking for.

A great cast with many of France's beloved actors. I would call this film is a low-key comedy (as in not the dumb-dumb stuff we sometimes see) tangled with real life drama. It's a pleasure to watch as we delve into each character's life, where is more than meets the eye. It's well acted, well directed, and overall makes for good viewing. Rather on the feel-good side of things - it's mostly believable, and when not, remember it's a comedy ;)

What a movie - its so emotional and sweet at the same time. Do you self a favor at see this movie, its fantastic

A brilliant comedy that encapsulates the mid-life crisis syndrome very aptly. Some parts of the film just made me want to laugh and cry with the characters. It is easy to see why this movie is so well-loved and such a crowd-pleaser. Watch this film for its witty dialogue and good chemistry between the cast, and just a fun night out.

Not just the body in this case, but also the mind. Also overcoming obstacles and being able to compete in something that would likely look impossible at the beginning of the movie. A nice almost fairy tale like story, that can be described like a feel good movie! - The actors really do their best to convey not just the emotions, but the emotional journey and the flaws they inhabit. A comedy drama that shows quite some craftmanship.

This is a lovely little fun movie. It will bring a smile to your face and a happy tear to your jaded eye.

For reasons best known to himself Gilles Lellouche opted not to act in this film and contented himself with directing - his friend Guillaume Canet, for example can and often does perform both functions - but it is unlikely that this excellent film would have been enhanced had he actually taken part. The cast is exceptionally strong in both male and female actors and what appeals is that no one - not Virginie Efira, Melanie Doutey, Marinas Fois, Matthieu Amlaric, Benoit Poolevarde - is particularly well known outside France but all have secure places in the domestic industry. The story is slight, a tad offbeat but ultimately both entertaining and satisfying.
