Clevercell Very disappointing...

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

IncaWelCar In truth, any opportunity to see the film on the big screen is welcome.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Irena I love this movie and I am not offended with it even though it may be regarded by some people as a "sexist movie". What's the use of being offended by the facts of life - men do usually prefer women that look great to women that have brains. And this is basically the theme the movie explores in its own funny way, with quite an optimistic ending leaving enough hope for happiness for women with brains as well. But my favorite scene in the movie is one a the very beginning and not related to the main theme - when Cecile returns to her newly discovered sensational Amazon tribe and finds them already enjoying fruits of civilization. That is an absolutely brilliant scene, in my opinion, and it alone makes the movie worth watching.

Anton Ertl This film has some nice and funny scenes, and a setup for an interesting story, but unfortunately the scenes do not combine into a story. Actually there are fragments of three stories: Cécile's research, the romance between Cécile and Laurent, and the friendship between Cécile and Alex. A brilliant film could have told them all, a decent film one or two of them, but this one completes none of them.Some things just seem to be missing: E.g., both the quarrel between Cécile and Alex and their reconciliation were pretty unmotivated; and we did not know that Alex should be saved from the operation, so the ending was an anticlimax. Also, we hear about Alex' mother, and it sounds meaningful, but it has no effect on the rest of the film.Of course, for me the main attraction of the film is Judith Godrèche, and she is beautiful as usual (more as Cécile than as Brigitte, so Bimbos don't work for everyone), and she was in every scene, so that made up somewhat for the story problems (for me).

LeRoyMarko Too bad Judit Godrèche's, Aure Atika's and Gérard Depardieu's great talent was wasted on this flick. It's bad! OK, there's beautiful woman in it, but it doesn't make it more easier to enjoy. Some parts of the film show potential, but it's not going further. Like if the director said: let's not try to make this an intelligent film about this one, let's just sell tickets for the screenings. Too bad!I give it 65. That's good for *½ out of ****.Seen at home, in Toronto, on September 9th, 2002.

David Eidelman I can understand why this movie received such a low rating. Women will be offended by the blatant sexism in the film, and the plot is very shallow. The film is kind of like one of those old Love That Bob series with Robert Cummings. The slapstick situations that are, well, funny. However, being a normal male that likes to look at hot women, I enjoyed the film. It also reminded me of Superman, where Lois Lane loved Superman, she didn't like Clark Kent though. Gerard Depardieu doesn't like Judith Godreche as a brilliant research person with her hair up and wearing glasses, but when she dresses up like a Bimbo and acts like one--he loves her! Ok, so it wasn't one of those sophisticated deep films. Even though it probably deserves its low IMDB rating of 4, I'm ashamed to admit it--I liked it.
