Les goûts et les couleurs

I think this is a nice little movie to watch without too many expectations: personally I found it a lot better than the average American comedy. I found interesting that, apart from the plot that is a bit surreal, they depicted the life of average European people in an European environment. A French Jewish family, a French-senegalese chef that is divided between an emancipated life and career and his family that wants to marry him to a Senegalese girl. I think that not everything has to be black or white, religion and sexuality for example can have a lot of shades. It's easier to see them in black or white but not everything can be described with a color or with a shade that already exists. Anyway, the plot is still a bit surreal, but it's a movie! A comedy! Come on! I think it's really enjoyable and Jean-Christophe Folly is superb

Contrary to the negative reviews, I found this terrific, sweet and moving, full of twists and confusions fit for Shakespeare. I could not stop laughing. Yes there are some improbable moments, but the charge of stereotypes seems unfair, I would rather say realistic. There were two less than ideal points - I thought Claire's initial reaction was a bit overwrought, and the ending was not very plausible. Agreed I am only LBTGQ sympathetic, but the dynamics seemed real enough and the ups and downs poignant.

The storyline could've been better, I didn't hate the movie but I hated the acting! You can never compare this low budget movie to "blue is the warmest color" however if u are soooo bored and u want to see a non conventional french movie think twice and play!

Oh everyone's a critic, not bad. Good movie on complicated relationships whether because of religion or sexual preference.

I was reserved at first, for I'm not into LGBT movies, but ended up really enjoying it. Superb acting, sharp humor and the story line kept me engaged through the end. No cliches.
