Average Rating: 
Rating: - Fantastic
This will likely be the funniest and one of the most charming movies you will see in your life. It has humor only the French can conceive of. The main actor (forget his name) provides endless funny gesturing, verbal wordplay,--it is simply a great great movie. I only wish more people were aware of it. Absolutely don't miss it. Worth every penny.
Rating: - good movie, bad dvd
I saw a customer take this out from the library, so I decided to borrow it after him. I mean, it had a very unique name, but I didn't know what to expect. Since I've never heard of this movie before I came out knowing nothing about it, which for me ended up being a good thing, because I love it now. At first I hated the slapstick, but after a while you get into it and appeciate how funny it is.

Rating: - THE FUNNIEST FILM I HAVE EVER SEEN
I originally saw an English version of this film in a cinema over 30 years ago and was delighted to find it was available on DVD.

It is inoffensive. The acting is superb, with just enough exaggeration to remove the content from the reality of everyday life and enable the viewer recapture the experience of seeing a proper movie. ... Read More
Rating: - Hilarious comedy for the whole family
Luis de Funes was one of the funniest French actors and it is unfortunate that very few of his films are available with English subtitles (this one has them). Luis is a master of funny facial expressions that will make all ages laugh. We ordered this movie from Amazon and watched it with our children (4 and 6 yrs old) - everybody had a great time (the children especially liked the bubble gum factory scenes). There are a few gunshots and a fight but the violence is cartoonish, G rating is fitting. Great lessons ... Read More
Rating: - Comedy at its best.
Side splitting humor! Sub-titles are more than adequate.
A very good example of Funes' type of comedy.
