I mark this movie with 6 out of 10.

Actually I think it is a good movie, but it didn't match my initial expectations. The advertisements spread out that this movie would be a funny comedy, but despite some punctual funny scenes, overall I felt this movie to be more a drama with a delicate plot.

I must grant that the plot is quite original, but my disappointment came from the fact that the movie spent a lot of time focused on breaking several taboo subjects. And none of this subjects helped the movie to be funny, which was what I expected.

In addition, the female character was good but too much dramatized I would say. She didn't provided any fun and even turned some possible fun sketches into drama. Not sure if the director intended this on purpose or if it was the actress' responsibility. As I said I expected more fun here.

At least I had good laughs with some of Aldo's lines and the scenes that included Aldo and his lawyer.

2*** out 10

The story of the movie preaches about the interior beauty against appearances and the body cult, but meanwhile it hides the ugly people by converting this interior beauty into sex-symbols like Gwyneth Paltrow and others(and I think Gwyneth Paltrow is a great actress, but this story is awful).

The movie is hypocrite! If you want to make a funny movie with ugly people, just do it! Do not hide them behind sex-symbols.

I would like to save one character from my criticism, because he is the only one that is not hidden. Moreover, the gags are foreseeable and thus not very funny (besides, they have been spoiled in the trailer)
