This movie, as the IMDb full storyline explains, is about relationships between long time friends. I enjoyed how the camaraderie and also the intimate closeness friends share is depicted. It is honest, brutally at times, then again, close friends can get away with what family and acquaintances cannot. It goes into the psychology of the varied characters. Not every moviegoer likes this sort of thing and so if you normally don't, you certainly won't. Also, if you have a prejudice or preconception of the French, you may not enjoy the movie; I happen to like the French and had a great time when I visited there. Since there is no interaction between the French and North Americans in the movie, you won't be offended; there is no mention of Americans whatsoever. The music is mostly American but not what most American would call hip.
I watched it in French and am not sure how the English version would sound like; I'd hazard a guess that it's 'sucky' and would make the characters sound idiotic, as translations always stand to do, especially this kind of movie as opposed to action movies. There are moments that are touching and others harsh, but in the end the friends have rid themselves of any pretense that might have brought that friendship to an end, they are closer and all feel better for it. I found it interesting and was not disappointed. Only IMDb ratings were favorable, not the other sources I usually check; I felt the rating of 7, at time of my review, was fair and rated it the same.
