Enjoyable to watch on a rainy afternoon.

Yvan Attal did a good job with this one, both as the director and as an actor. Charlotte Gainsbourg made me realize I'm getting old. Having known her since being the little daughter of Serge Gainsbourg to a mature good actress, many years passed by since then. Mon Chien Stupide (or My Dog Stupid for the English title) is a good dramady, easy to watch, and entertaining enough, certainly for this genre. Melancholy, difficult parenthood, existential life answers and questions, and a dog, those are the ingredients. The acting was good and that from the whole cast, even the big Mastiff. Good cinematography too, a movie with nothing really bad to write about. Don't expect anything fast paced though, it's mostly conversations between family members, the daily family arguments, but it's sometimes emotional and recognizable. Worth a watch.

Drama baby drama

I have to admit the beginning, well after the initial voice over, so the beginning as in the first real scene in the house, is quite something. Great dialog, super funny and it feels quite light. But as with life in general it does not stay that way. And by that I don't just mean the dialog but the mood and lightness the movie had at first - or seemed to have.

The acting is superb and the script/dialog throughout is quite something to behold. The relationships seem as realistic depicted as they can be. Even if you don't agree with one of the characters the motivations for their actions are clear cut. They all make sense. And in between all of them ... a dog. You might love that or hate it (I know one person who is not impressed with pets or animals at all - so no winning over for her) ... and that is before thinking about all the drama that lies within the movie

Didn't expect that

Excellent film. Completely different from what I expected. Maybe hit too close to home. I was thinking comedy. It had very funny moments, but the overall film, was real life. Family. Expectations. Disappointments. Love.

Stupid's a REAL HIT in my book!

This movie made me L. O. L. And that's RARE! The interactions between 'Stupid' and the family members should strike a chord w all animal lovers.

Enjoy!

A great movie

Wonderful and endearing black comedy. Great movie to watch with young adults. Very well directed by actor/director Yvan Attal. Wife and superb actress Charlotte Gainsbourg does a great job too. Just a great example of life, family and enduring through it.
