Le carton

Watched it on a flight from Paris. Simple story, yet very funny. Hero's mishaps were a bit overstretched at times, but overall, it wasn't too bad. Nice selection of characters. The actors are quite young, and did a good job performing their roles.

I'd call this movie "easily digestible." Not exhausting, doesn't involve much brain work.

My rating: Recommend.

For those, who're gonna see this flick: my favorite part is the Vincent character hiding in the box. don't wanna tell more - not to ruin it for you.

I did not expect much from a low budget French movie with a cast of relative newcomers. The plot is very simple. A guy has to move out in a day, completely unprepared, and drive his mum to the airport.

Completely stressed out, he calls his friends for help. Short notice however results in all his friends making it with an agenda of their own.

The comic is mostly situation (quiproquo), but had me in stitched on quite a few occasions. The actors act simple and natural and sends us back to the careless days of students move.

I will not give away the numerous twists of the story however some Bulgarian model is involved in a photoshoot, various items of furnitures thrown out the window and some poor dog smashed by a fridge (not shown sadly!)
