Ghislain Lambert's Bicycle Reviews

It is once again a rather obscure French movie which not much people have seen here in Listal (I was one of the first users who have rated this movie and, right now, only 6 users have rated it so far). First of all, even though I really didn’t like ‘C'est arrivé près de chez vous’ (In my opinion, it is probably one of the most overrated classics ever), I always had a weak spot for Benoît Poelvoorde and when I heard about this flick, I thought it really sounded hilarious so I was really eager to check it out and, if I recall correctly, I even saw it in the movie theater when it was released. At the time, Poelvoorde was becoming pretty famous in France thanks to his awesome work on TV and since his star was rising, they decided to make some comedies with him in the lead. Anyway, to be honest, even though I thought it would be really funny, eventually, I thought it was just slightly amusing. It is always the issue when they make a comedy about a stupid and annoying character, it usually doesn’t work very well and this movie was not an exception, I’m afraid. To conclude, even though I thought it was slightly disappointing, I still think it was a decent comedy and I think it is worth a look, especially if you are interested in French movies.
