    No rating, only commentary on translation

    For the English original version, Canadian French characters keep their own voices and speak Québécois - the dialect of French speaking people in Québec and a large part of French Canadian outside Québec. Nice.

    Ridiculously, for the French version, there are no Canadian translation, only a translation from France. Then Québécois characters are dubbed in Paris French - which they proudly named True French - instead of keeping the Canadian French voices. So if you are a Québécois and you don't want to feel that the New York guy is visiting Paris, listen to the original soundtrack and put French subtitles to understand the English characters.

    Why are people rating this movie so low!?

    This is a very unfair rating for this film.

    Do we not enjoy a cheesy rom com anymore? This movie was par for the course and a prototypical Zack Braff role where he plays the protagonist who you root for, and laugh at, as he continues to get in his own way. Think his character throughout nine seasons of scrubs. This movie had a similar plot line to a movie that he did with Jason Bateman, the ex, add a more attractive, villain, Vanessa, Hudgens, and a lot more spoken French requiring reading subtitles. But if you like that movie, or the Last Kiss, or Garden State, then this movie is also for you.

    Don't listen the haters : the whole room was having fun.

    What a nice surprise. The entire theater was laughing for the duration of the film. Good jokes, great story, the actors are pleasant, really a great experience and a comedy to watch again.

    What a great way to show the beautiful Québec city. The chemistry between the actors is also amazing. Don't trust the haters, it's a great comedy and the whole room enjoyed it. Abimé

    The cast is brilliant, each having their moment to shine. The jokes are well structured and delivered, the sense of comedy is on point.

    The film offers a beautiful representation and beautiful images of Quebec City without missing its chance to present certain assumed clichés. It's a true love letter to the city and you can feel it from start to finish.

    The usual Hollywood tripe though it's Canadian, as it were

    I was looking forward to this film as I love Quebed City and Quebec in general. I have ancestors from Beauport. But I wanted to stop watching 10 minutes into it. Why would a beautiful, talented, accomplished young woman be at all interested in a neurotic, weak, candyass loser like Gordon? It's just too preposterous to suspend one's disbelief in order to enjoy at least the scenery in the film. The storyline displalys one cliche after another. I don't understand how scripts like this get made. No, wait, I do: because Hollywood producers are all neurotic, weak candyasses who were able to move on from their careers in car sales or the clothing business or corporate law through nepotism or fraternity connections.

    A good start but it fell apart

    Ok so Zach is a klutz and apparently the most insensitive sensitive guy you could imagine. Zach is an English teacher so not a moron and yet is made to be ludicrously stupid to manufacture the moment/s of crisis. Nobody could be that dumb. When he does stand up and say things that he shouldn't say it's not to the complete jerks to whom a few harsh words are owed, it's to his partner. Ok, you might say that's his character but as a viewer it's disappointing and really annoying.

    It has its funny moments but if Zach had just been . . . Intelligent it would have been so much better and it might have been believable that the girl actually wanted him. I sure didn't.

    • Trivia
      Although the movie got a much wider than average theatrical release in its native Canada, for some reason distributor Elevation Pictures chose not to put forward a substantial marketing campaign for it. As a result, the movie did very badly at the box office, and it was pulled from most theaters at the end of its second week of release.

      The title: the woman ("girl") is actually Canadian and not French in the least. At most, she's a francophone, as she was born and raised in Quebec, from Canadian parents.
