i have to be 100 % honest with you fellow imdb user . i want to see this movie for a very long time only because of the poster . doesn not charlotte gainsbourg look extremely sexy and charm smile that way . i be in love with that woman . i get what i expect . but only half . this film should deliver expectation for those who enjoy all kind of romantic comedy or story involve intelligent humor and light dramatic situation . while i do not agree with another fellow imdb user who state that the movie be overrate while i must admit that préte moi ta main have plenty of flaw . my main problem with the film be the lack of on screen chemistry between the main character . there isn not a single scene previous to the climax that show the main character share a moment of romance or even a clue to suggest that theyre interested in each other . in fact and the only scene be both share a moment be tremendously awkward ( when both be in the couch ) and do not help the audience understand about a possible love interest . i do not buy the dinner sequence . still and the movie delivers very funny moment and have a strong dialog that support such an ingenuous premise . i mean with ingenuous that it would be very difficult to execute such a farse by a 43 year old man in these day . i understand it a movie and that why i accept it a a funny situation . plus and the humor be versatile . there be moment involve s and m and funny line with chabat best friend and some lesbian reference and funny situation involve the family woman and and more . charlotte gaionsbourg performance be top notch and she by far the reason to watch the movie . she funny and sexy and look very thin and fine and and demonstrate she a versatile and talented actress who can pull out a comedic and dramatic performance in sheer brilliance . alain chabat be a fine actor and give a very decent performance . i think the support cast do what they can . the score and art direction and and other technical aspect be really good and give a dynamic look to the film . those who enjoy this kind of cinema should be please after the end credit . it a good example of feel good cinema .
