Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

clem-cost This movie is so dear to my heart. I loved it the first time I saw it in the cinema and I still do now, three years later. It's such a heartwarming, feel-good comedy that I could watch endlessly! Maybe a little too simple if you ever expected a grand impressive performance, but that's what makes me love it. It doesn't try to be pretentious, on the contrary, it's genuine and eye opening on the main character/actor's sexuality (Galliene considers himself as bisexual). Now I only gave it 8 because objectively it's not worth a ten I think... But it's a movie from my country that I'm proud of :)

coulinjo This movie is appealing and mesmerising because of the lead actor, and had so many exceptional points (all pointed out perfectly in previous reviews) but is unconvincing in the detail - and absolutely pitiful in conclusion. That a man can be so effeminate, and identify so strongly as being a girl his whole life, only to be 'turned' so completely into a masculine man with no effeminate mannerisms just because the 'right girl' walks in to a room leaves a very bad taste in the mouth. People have fought so long to be recognised for who they truly are, and this movie sends that movement back to the beginning..."all gay/transgender people just haven't met the right person yet". For me, that heavy-handed chunkiness wiped out everything else. Now I just remember the Mr Bean massage scene, and the puzzling end. I don't know why so many French films seem to be overacted to a slapstick level, but it doesn't work for me.

julianna-19 I found this comedy mildly amusing, with some truly vulgar scenes and dialogue - I would not have wished to watch it in the company of our children. A tour de force - yes - credible - no. Guillaume could not possibly have been happy with his final choice for long, nor could we believe that his love was really requited. As for thinking he had solved the puzzle of his relationship with Mama - HE thought he had - we didn't. My husband was - quite frankly - bored. Others have commented on the fact that there is no real plot to this movie. That need not matter, but it does need to have internal logic and honesty. Although promising till nearly the conclusion, we felt that it came to an abrupt end producing a situation that was entirely unexpected and untrue to the character of Guillaume and his situation. The entire sequence of the "cure" in Bavaria was unnecessary, not particularly funny, and seemed like padding. Time and effort could better have gone into exploring Guillaume's final relationship which was so cursory as to seem like just another of his fantasies. Finally, although his portrayal of his mother was one of the funnier components of the film it was hard to imagine him being enthralled by that spiky, bad-tempered woman.

gardieca Went to watch this movie hesitating about I would like it, and I have to say the film becomes much more interesting once the half hour has passed, the leader actor seems to feel more comfortable into the story, and also do the watchers. The songs, the blue and grey photography, and the misse en scene really catch you more and more. Guillaume is a boy really cute who loves his mother, his aunts, his grandmother, and all the womwn around him. He tries to get along with his thinkings and his feelings despite his father, who doesn't agree with his ideas and wants him to play football and to be a boy just like his brothers are. The movie starts slowly but goes faster and deeper and when you realize, the film will be over and you'll leave the theatre really pleased to meet Gullaume and his family.
