An average movie

I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Romain Duris, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, I really had a hard time to care about the damned thing. I mean, it was basically like watching ‘Rocky’ except that they switched boxing with speed typing which was pretty much as lame as it sounds. Of course, pretty much like with ‘Down with Love’, the whole point was to recreate the sweet and innocence vibe coming from such light comedies made at the end of the 50's and the beginning of the 60’s but, in my opinion, the genre feels nowadays seriously outdated. At least, I can’t deny that the lovely Déborah François with her charismatic classic look was a perfect choice to play this character. Concerning Romain Duris, I always thought he was one of the most interesting French actors, it was pretty neat to see him doing something so different and he obviously had a lot of fun with this part. Eventually, Duris and François had a really nice chemistry together but it was still not enough to make me forget the general silliness coming from this flick. Anyway, to conclude, even if it wasn’t really for me, I guess it might still be worth a look but only if you really like the genre.
