Description

Brothers Zef and Roni could not be more different; different career paths, different taste in women, one all religious austerity, the other enjoying the high-life. All they have in common is their ageing and addle brained father, and their daughters who are best friends. So when the funeral of Zef’s wife falls on the day of Roni’s daughter’s wedding this stroke of unfortunate timing that brings to a head the simmering antagonism between the two brothers. From London to Paris, Saint-Tropez and New York, a string of misunderstandings and betrayals blow apart any semblance of family harmony. But thanks to all the arguments and clumsy reconciliations, a great love story is born… and perhaps even two. A delightfully effervescent intergenerational comedy, starring the legendary Monica Bellucci, comedy hero Kad Merad (Welcome to the Sticks) and directed by the veteran Danielle Thompson (La Boum).

  • Not a Comedy, But Light-Hearted

    By BSerracin
    Any comedy that begins with and depends on a fatal traffic accident (pedestrian) can't escape that irony. Throughout, it never rises to a laugh. Chuckles are about all it attains. There are beautiful women (Monica Bellucci in her early middle years is still a work of art), but this is really a forgettable project. It has wonderful settings. Just not much else.
