    Random humans doing happy random stuff

    I classify myself as a human being. Other human beings classify me as a straight white male. I still classify myself as a human being. I enjoyed this movie, seeing random humans doing happy random stuff. It's confusing that my fellow humans don't know 2nd article of UDHR.

    À good feel good movie

    Funny, emotional and happy! The kind of movies we all need right now
    FrenchEddieFelson

    A feel good movie!

    Although I do not belong to any of the two next categories, I think this film can please both gays (well, for obvious reasons) and homophobic people (let's say it's ultra cliche). Be prepared for an encounter of the third kind with the complete YMCA (Village People, 1978) and Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (Stephan Elliott, 1994) ... in swimming suit! This is clearly not a masterpiece and the script is predictable, but the actors are really endearing and the film is full of wacky and hilarious replies, even if the jokes are not always very subtle, far from Oscar Wilde's comedies as an example. In this regard, although the film is categorized 'all public', I will not necessarily suggest you to see this movie with your 7-year-old niece, if any. In short: I liked this nice teamwork!

    More fun than any comedy movie I saw in the last 10 years!

    I saw this in the cineplex film night in Mannheim in french with german subtitles.

    Lovable characters and the jokes are not pulled by the hair into the scenes (if the german proverb "bei den Haaren herbeigezogen" exists in english). Not comparable with the mainstream comedy movies - most of them american - I saw.

    True story

    Enjoyed shiny shrimps Loved Joel (the aging activist) Some moments felt a little cliched but it's based on a true story which I love (dark horse doc being a huge fav of mine) and the balance of characters - Cedric the dad another fav - makes the film Well worth a watch
