The plot of the movie is really funny, but is it really not a tendency to abuse animals? Poor dog is always thrown out.

A unique kind of Humor. Not a copy of any other Humor.

A French comedy which feels like a mainstream American comedy – with all the animal- and sex-jokes, partying, misadventures and wacky characters you can digest in 90 minutes. And it's sweet! The story is about hot new startup that creates alibis for people who want to lie to other people (seems that paying customers are mostly cheating husbands or boyfriends). Then, the founder of the company is lucky to meet the love of his life, and suddenly uniting work and private affairs gets really difficult. This is fast-moving mainstream comedy so the actors are more adequate than great. Surprisingly, the best and most nuanceful performance comes from Élodie Fontan who's supposed to be just a pretty girl in a supporting role (the love interest mentioned above). What's most interesting about the male leads – the people behind the alibi-creating company – is that two of them also wrote the screenplay, and the leading man Philippe Lacheau is both co- screenwriter and director. That's a lot of work for one pretty boy! And what a nice ride it is! Jokes come thick and fast, the actors are likable enough to command our attention, and the story is surprisingly layered. Beside the main events, one can spot not-too-obvious movie jokes („Bloodsport", „Star Wars", „Snatch.", „Assassin's Creed" among others), light satirical jabs at current world events, buddy and screwball comedy elements, and separate story lines suddenly interwining shortly for some added comic effect. They have used quite a lot of clichés known to current mainstream (American) comedies but the result feels fresh and inventive. There's enough good energy and bravura to justify the viewing even if you don't usually much care about the sex jokes. I've only seen about 25 movies released in 2017 so far, but „Alibi.com" is my second favorite after „Get Out". Nothing new here, really, but they sure knew how to put these clichés of raunchy comedies to good use. Yeah!

Its an average comedy with a lot of clichees and a typical romatic-comedy plot. But I have to admit that I had to laugh a few times and many jokes worked pretty well. So if you are searching for a funny comedy at a evening after a stressful day at work and you don't want to use much brain this movie is a pretty good fit.

The crew of this movie was wonderful when they didn't have mainstream success. They were original and hilarious. See Babysitting. Since then, apart from the movie "Nicky Larson" that was great but maybe mainly because of the nostalgia, they just do movies after movies trying to get the art they once had. It happens when genuine people get rich too quick I guess... Now they just want to show off, invite the most inexpensive and once famous guys in their movie to do as mainstream industry does and lost almost all their genuine comedy talent (a lot of scenes describe that, but one in the first part of the movie resume everything: the main actor and director dance with ridiculous glasses in an old music miming slapstick comedy, but showing every muscle he can...). If they could show more iphones on the first plan, I'm sure they would. Finally, Almost all jokes are recycled... Don't get me wrong, there is moment where you're gonna laugh, mainly if you've never seen one of their movies. For me, the crew lost themselves on too much champagne. I rate it 5 because I'm confident that if you don't know the crew, you will enjoy this title more than me.
