The film is a french rom-com that sometimes hints at being some kind if neo-noir, but none of the build up is ever well payed. It has some interesting choices, but it's cinematography is dull. The characters have a lot of hateful characteristics but you end up kind of understanding their point of view, maybe even liking them a little bit. There are a lot of questions made by the film thatyou could argue at never getting an answer. It's not bad, it's not great, it's okay, you can whatch it if you really like french movies

Second movie as a director for Louis Garrell, and (as in Two Friends) he pays tribute to the cinema that made him the director (and actor) he is today. The only problem is (for me) the conclusion of his movies, always quickly solving the good intuition of the start. His love for love triangles and ironic ways to talk about love disasters is a signature, and I wish he will be able to end a movie the way he knows how to start them.

... Louis Garrel has to be one of luckiest men in the world... constantly working with some of the most gorgeous women in films (here with his wife Laetitia Casta), and being paid handsomely for doing so

... this an interesting little movie raising a few questions that never get answered... to ask them now would give away too much of the storyline, and you need not knowing where this is all going to make watching anyway worthwhile

... overall the production was okay... the ending being the greatest disappointment, and final unanswered question... French films notably do this alot... as in most other Western countries, the divorce rate in France has risen in the last decade, where now more than half of all marriages end in divorce... seeing this film it's understandable why.

On the face of it, this is just a simple romantic comedy. The three leading characters all engage in a bit of swapping and sharing and somehow you just know that's not going to be much of a recipe for success! . The writing has all the depth of a puddle and there isn't much unpredictable for us here. It does, however, have something about it - there is a dynamic between them and the plot is oddly believable in a mischievous sort of way. It makes for a perfectly watchable hour and a quarter, and leaves you afterwards thinking if perhaps you could suggest your partner were to go live with someone else who fancies them.... Perhaps not!

Louis Garrel's lightweight drama initially seems like a vanity project for its writer, director and star. Nine years on from a brutal break-up, his endearingly ruffled Abel finds himself in a love triangle with the widowed Marianne (Garrel's real-life spouse Laetitia Casta) and LilyRose Depp's obsessive Eve. But skipping spryly between romantic comedy, reflective character piece and gentle farce, it surprises by putting its two women firmly in charge, leaving its assumed lead as little more than their bemused plaything. At just 75 minutes, it breezes by, though Casta's wily turn lingers beyond the credits.

First time for me to watch a 70 mins full movie but it turned out great. This and the fast pacing of the scenes were enough to show the life of Abel. Louis did a great job acting and directing. Also big fan of Lily-rose Depp.

I love so much frenh movies, but this one is not good bored, too much short and nothing new, I do not know what is the iea with this movie, bad, very bad

When I started watching this movie my first impression was 'oh, another pain & angst love story'. But after !5 minutes into the film I was hooked and had to see it to the ending.

There is a sudden and unexpected statement from one of the main characters that captured my attention at about the 15 minute mark and I was hooked on what was going to happen to Abel, Marianne, Eve, and Joseph!

This movie will leave you guessing and wanting more at the end. Louis Garrel did a superb writing/directing/acting job here and kudos to him!

I like romantic French movies, they revolve around the dynamics of relationships not in a 'rom-com shallow' way, at least most of the time. This movie is no exception - the plot is believable, I can imagine it happening exactly the same way in real life.

Acting is also good, pace is perfect - the movie is 75 minutes altogeher -, nothing is too dramatic or cheesy. Well done!

Wow, this was bad. it was marketed as a"feminist take on the rom-com' but coming from Louis Garrel who displayed his deep misogyny with his signing onto a petition calling for the release of director Roman Polanski after his arrest in relation to his 1977 charge for drugging and raping a 13-year-old girl -- I doubt the he has the sensibilities for any "feminist take."

If course feminism in French film is more than an oximoron anyway. The feminism in this is having Johhny Depp's teenage daughter playing a liberated character chasing a near 40 year old man. ok. Yeah.

I felt this could have been one of harvey wienstiens films!

First, let me celebrate the 60 years in the business that Jean-Claude Carriere will soon mark. He'll turn 90 next year, and this old collaborator with Luis Bunuel, Louis Malle and so many other great directors is still writing lovely scripts. Second, this is an impressive film from Louis Garrel, who manages to pull off the always challenging feat of directing and playing the male lead. I thought only men like Orson Welles could do that. Garrel plays Abel as somewhat hangdog: imagine what it would be like to hear from your live-in girlfriend that she's pregnant and she's through with you because she's been having an affair with your best friend--ouch!--then, years later, her son confides in you that he thinks his mom killed his dad. Superb acting here from Garrel and the wonderful kid Joseph Engel. Finally, Laetitia Casta and Lily-Rose Depp are both very good. Casta's part is the more challenging, she's got to be like Maria Casares in Les dames du Bois de Boulogne, and she brings it off.

Watch it with no expectations. Don't expect Louis to direct like his father. It's a lightweight romcom that you just have to flow with and let yourself enjoy. It's not a cinematographic piece of art. The characters are good and the actors amazing. Louis doesn't disappoint to portray a romantic and sentimental kinda men (I can always trust him with that). Feels natural and fun.
