Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

pierrebarberis This is one of the best Lelouch ever. All human feeling are brilliantly mixed together to create a wonderful blend of emotions, moves, beauty...and fun! Love, hate, greed, Invention, Chance, Crookedness,Humor are the key ingredients of this brilliantly interwoven scenario, well served by the best actors of their generation. Ravishing women ( Marie-Sophie L. and Allessandra Martines, both former Lelouch Wifes or lovers) and Talented men (Luchini, Huster but also Darmon, Gamblin, Gérard, Lindon).Of course, its talkative , at times, and you need either a good practice of french or good subtitles and to see it twice ! Definitely a "Must See".

ccthemovieman-1 This is a French film that's decent but won't exactly knock your socks off. It is a slow-moving film, too slow overall for most people's tastes including mine in this instance.The three guys and their respective love affairs are at least somewhat interesting, but the time spent on these judges and their love stories is so tedious it's beyond boredom. Marie-Sophie Lelouch, the wife the man who directed this film had a really pretty face that I enjoyed admiring. That, and clean language throughout the story, have my thanks, but little else in here is worthy of much praise.Somewhere in here was a minor crime story but basically, this film is all talk, talk, talk and more talk, and you keep waiting for something to happen.....anything! The translation of this title to English sums up the movie: "All this....for just that?" That's the way I felt after watching this snooze-fest, or as Peggy Lee immortalized in song, "Is That All There Is?"

Kassdhal This movie is typical of Lelouch's movies. We find in this movies most of his favorites actors/actresses, beginning with all his wives (current and former) and several of the greatest french actors, including Fabrice Luchini and Gerard Darmon who do - as usual - a great job. Other actors are good also but the show is stolen by these two, especially Luchini who creates a whole scene under a tent in the mountain that was clearly not forecasted.This is a movie about coincidences, about love, about love's fools. This is a pure entertainment that makes you laugh but also makes you cry by moment. We find out all Lelouch's signatures touch, including some dreaming philosophy, lot of great talkative exchanges and a scenario that just doesn't want to go anywhere else than to offer moments of lifes, as intuited by the title of the movie ("Tout ca...pour ca" is a famous quote in French meaning something like "All this... just for that??").If you like to dream, if you don;t need to be shown an "american" plot with good guys, bad guys, princess to save and solid morale at the end, you will like this movie and have a truly great time watching it. If, on the contrary, you need to be taken care of and you don;t like to let your brain go with the story, pass this movie. It is just a refreshing breeze of life's moments, it does not intend to deliver a message.

David Carbajales Even though Lelouch is not a usual French director who shots very talkative people in his movies, this one is a perfect example of what French cinema is known for. The plot is about a trial against three men who tried to earn loads of money by illegal methods to get to Canada and about the lawyers and the judge who get on with the trial and who are being unfaithful to their couples. In the third part of the movie we realize that all the characters are connected when the trial itself is showed. In between, the characters talking,talking,talking and talking their superfluous conversations as usual in French cinema. This is not a must see, but it's nice enough if you don't have any other better thing to do than watch this movie.
