I love it ! It has something special, the subject is well shown. It's not just comedy, this movie tries to explain the feelings and the situation in witch is put an tightfisted, his social problems.

Maybe, next time we will see one, we would be more sympathetic with him, because it's hard to live like this, but it's kind of in this blood, It is a trait of character.

I liked the fact that the movie shows the beginning of this avidity, his parents, education is one more time so important.

And maybe every tightfisted is not so complicated like this one, maybe we can help him, we can be that neighbor who helps him, may if he doesn't do always the same ;) In fact, this movie can affect a lot of tightfisted people.

"Radin!" is a Comedy movie in which we watch a man saving money all of his life and trying to cut his expenses when he finds out that he has a daughter who has an expensive style of living and drives him crazy.

I enjoyed this movie because it had plenty of humor and many funny moments. It also contained many hilarious reactions of the main characters and a simple but interesting plot. The interpretation of Dany Boon who played as François Gautier was simply amazing and he made the difference. Some other interpretations that have to be mentioned were Noémie Schmidt's who played as Laura, Laurence Arné's who played as Valérie and Patrick Ridremont's who played as Cédric. Lastly, I have to say that "Radin!" is a nice comedy movie and I highly recommend everyone to watch it because I am sure that you will enjoy it and you will laugh a lot.

Ok, French movies are 90% boring and plotless. This one is also stupid. In my reviews I assigned high scores to many films with Daniel Auteil or others like comedies, where French are masters. But this one not. I would have rated 0 or max 1. I assigned a 2 only for a quick concert they played at very courageous speed. More or less the unique 30-40 seconds worth to watch. The rest is pathetic.

For me this is the like of such comedies as Radin! which seem light-hearted, silly, too hyperbolized and over the top on the surface that turn out to be something more than meets the eye. Like with most comedies it takes a problem, overly dramatizes it in favor of laughs (which are almost non-existent here), spices it up with a bit of family drama, love story, mistaken identity issues and we have it, almost word-for-word, a blueprint for an average comedy movie to waste your saturday night on. But is it really that bad to be so formulaic? I think not. Radin! has plenty to give, from the thought about where do our taxes go to the simple truth of not judging a book by its cover; it also provides us with a good portion of drama (although also a bit formulaic in terms of performance) and unwillingly squeezes the tears out of the eyes - what you never expect from a comedy - which totally gives this movie more credit and a couple of extra points to my final rating. Overall this is a no time-waster, there is a laugh and a smirk here and there (mostly in one scene) with something to think about afterwards but despite that it's just all too safe, overly exaggerated and too unfunny to be a comedy.

In the womb, Baby Dany hears his mum berate his spend thrift dad and grows to be a congenital tight wad living in a Jacques Tati Cul de sac, (where the neighbours hate him) and playing violin for an orchestra with fetching cellist Arné. This is disrupted by the arrival of daughter (cut price condom) Schmidt.

Clever routines - the block meeting in Dany's flat where he can't escape, playing The Four Seasons against the clock or using his bank manager as a therapist - are expertly delivered under the supervision of "Polar" specialist Cavayé.

Totally undemanding entertainment is a welcome break from the more purposeful sub-titled offerings.
