Un hombre a la altura

If a short guy could fall for a taller woman, why tall woman could not fall for a short guy, as long as he's romantic, with strong sense of humor, a big heart, a charmer in his own way and his height? But of course, the short guy who falls for a tall beautiful woman, his first and must have requirement is, well, he must be rich, not just rich, but must be very rich, and social status must also quite recognizable to the general public. That, is the only way to make the tall beauty to at least allow you come near. Without enough dough, there's no way to approach a beautiful tall woman. Tom Cruise, Keith Urban, Sylvester Stallone, many short guys got no difficulty to make women fall for him in the first place, their later divorces or separations got nothing to do with their natural heights; there were private personal reasons caused the irrevocable and un-salvageable situations, but the heights of the men or husbands would not be the major reason.

I noticed a reviewer, ElMaruecan8231, who wrote a review on December 2017 and hatefully attack this movie that he admitted he wrote his review but actually didn't even bother to watch. And he slandered this movie and swear to boycott it. I don't know what's wrong with this guy. It seems that he got the same problems as Donald Trump, so obnoxious and so arrogantly self-righteous and self-important to attack a movie that he didn't even actually see it. This movie is as the "Fake News" to POTUS. A reviewer so pompously to attack a movie he didn't even watch is a new phase that imdb might have to deal with; it's no better than those fake reviews.

This movie is fun and well made. Jean Dujardin is a genius level actor and an irresistible charmer. I just don't know how the movie makers made him look so short all the way through, put him in one of the "Gulliver's Travels" situation - into a land of giants. Virginie Efira, what a lovely beauty and likable actor. If there's only one guy, a shorty, fell for her, the world must be deadly wrong.

I particularly enjoyed the first half of this movie as I could totally relate to it. Not exactly by me dating such a short man, but men with other physical short falls that I wrestled with. Shallow, I know. This couple were so wonderful to watch and the chemistry between them was great. I absolutely loved the dance scene - I really was not expecting him to be such a good dancer. The 2nd half strayed way too much into typical Hollywood Rom-Coms, which I avoid like the plague- especially the ending. Still, overall - a good, watchable film with a gorgeous leads.

Honestly, i'm not fond of french movies BUT this one is so amazingly good !. I laughed, cried, jumped out of my chair - realizing how stereotyped I AM !. Everything and everybody in this movie is simply great!. Tempo, Shooting angles, music are great. Brilliant script, great acting and great directing.

Up for love is a movie about Alexandre, a little man that with his charming and gallant attitude tries to win the heart of equally charming and pretty Diana. I felt identified with Alexandre, since in the past I had a girlfriend that was taller than me xD

The movie focus a little in the socially acceptable side of the relationship without becoming too serious. It also has a few funny moments here and there. I think the best of the film is the performance of both actors, but I specially like Virginie's Efira portrayal of Diana.

Finally, it has been a long time since I don't see a delightful movie like this, and Up for Love becomes like an oasis in the middle of Hollywood blockbuster movies that I usually end up watching. I enjoyed it a lot.

This is the classic French romcom with a twist. A dashing architect and a big girl lawyer fall in love with each other. Who wouldn't, they've got everything going for them, so much so that it's sheer willpower that keeps them from falling heels over head in love with themselves. And every man should take a few pointers from Alexandre how to properly woo a woman. The only hitch is that this French lover stands barely 1,40 m tall. Although this predicament is obvious from the start, and I felt a bit nauseous about how truly wonderful Alexandre is (he's great at anything), the movie still provides a lot of momentum and keeps the story going. It's especially fun to watch how they make the 1,82 m tall actor Jean Dujardin appear to be only 1,36 m tall by a number of old school tricks (his counterpart Diane (Virginie Efira) standing on a box, or Jean Dujardin kneeling) and CGI (green screen).
