6/10
not bad but disappointing for old fans

Warning: Spoilers
I have very mixed feeling for this movie. I am, like many Frenchmen of my generation, in complete adoration for the first three movies the band has made (Les Bronzes, Les Bronzes font du ski, Le pere Noel est une ordure).

Thus, I was expecting this movie to make me laugh as much as these "big" three.

The result is disappointing, without being able to differentiate between the objective assessment of the movie and the - excessive? - expectations I had. I may have been deceived because I was expecting too much, regardless of the movie where, As usual Lhermitte is great.

I find the part of Dominique Lavanant too incredible and it hurts the whole movie who could have been much better without this.

As a whole a better than average movie that could only deceive the fans of the first "big three".

Asn to address the point, it seems to me that the movie is too french, too full of enjoyable political incorrectness and of references to be even understood to the minimum level by a non french-speaker
