When I read the blurb on what this film was about I thought 'Hey, Chris Rock, French people and a funny meeting with the future in/out laws. Sounds good to me!' How wrong could I have been? I know for a fact that this film is NOT a true representation of how French families behave and find it difficult to believe that a French person wrote it! Some may consider me to be a bit of an old fuddy duddy for not particularly enjoying unnecessary swearing in films but to have to read them in wonderful HD was a bit beyond the pale for me! Maybe I'm lucky and have only ever met decent French people, who knows? Would the 2 sisters in this film really have behaved and sworn the way they did had they been in Paris? Not very likely so why should we believe anything about the film if they do it in New York? Chris Rock played the straight man and throughout the film looked lost and confused. I honestly think that most of the time he was wondering what the hell he was doing in the film in the first place? I have rated this film as a 1 but only because Zer0 was not an option. All in all a MASSIVE disappointment and I will not be in a hurry to go and see any more films involving any of the same cast.
