The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

from many others. no surprises, no revelations. only a simple story about the clash between old world and modern society. and an ironic portrait of France. it is one of films useful after a long hard work day. nothing memorable and the story seems be a mix of improvisation and pretext for the humor. family, golden past covered by the need of money, a love story and the war between generations, a castle and extravagant plans about it, lies and the delicate truth, solutions and the pink end. a film like a party. full of guests and gifts and music. but nothing more, in essence, than a soap ball. a virtue - not the most inspired but real nice reference to the aristocrats against the pressure of contemporary challenges.

Charming, crazy, naive, easy comedy. Nothing remarkable. A French movie with a very old recipes, without any spice but with mountains of cream. A poor noble family and its financial problems, a ridiculous bad guy and grotesque characters, few drops of love and cool idea. And crumbs of a nice film about nothing. A ironic view about clash between old and new, a caricature of France , a game, childish and almost foolish, a slice of self irony and the end. Not deep memories and nothing more than a form of exploitation of loisir. And a final as incrimination of society. The seeds are of a drama. But the gardener - director is fan of a basic solution. So, the cake is salted and its colors - strange. But the intention is not to make a masterpiece.
