I think it is a French attempt at "cringe comedy". Good actors and wonderful dialogues. First half of the movie, I laughed out loud, chuckled, really enjoyed it. But "cringe humour" is a difficult thing. I love Judd Apatow productions but he does know where to draw a line. The writers of this movie did not know where that fine line is. The movie starts getting into embarrassing, situations become more and more outlandish, completely unbelievable and... Everything good - and it has lots of good - was spoiled through uncontrolled, disgusting, base jokes.
