Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

Hadrina

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

A Catholic French couple sees their life upside down when their four daughters get married to men of different religion and origins. Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu? benefits from a great perfomance from Christian Clavier and most of the comic relief comes from him and works 100% also the story works without getting boring or even racist. It's not perfect tho cause i think that the husbands were the weakest element of the plot and don't get me wrong they do a good job in terms of acting it's just that their characters get some screen time and their arguements at times were extremely silly. But Clavier shines and the jokes do land for the most part and fans of the French Cinema won't be disappointed. (7.5/10)

This flick makes fun of the racism the traditional Christians have against persons of other religions, races and both of them together. In short is a great comedy I laugh my ass off and highly recommended to everyone ,apart from fanatics who lack the brain to understand the joke! So the story follows the Catholic family Verneuil, whose couple have raise their four daughter with the principals of Catholicism and Degoalism ,but and here is the comedy they have married each a different person of race and religion. The reactions of the elder against their sons in law ,are the jewel of the movie because are showing the hypocrisy of these people who call themselves Christians and they treat those who are different to them in a xenophobic manner. The fun comes from the fact that the main principal of Christianity is "love the other as I loved you" and see those people ,who say they are devout Christians ,act in such a way ,shows to me at least that you can learn to someone the principals of love ,tolerance and so on ,but to make them apply to their every day life ... is an other problem altogether! So if anyone say that he would react in a more civilized way, then I dare him to put himself or herself in to the shoes of the elderly Verneuil!If only the critics weren't so hard to it ,which shows that Christians aren't yet so good in applying their doctrine's main principals very well. Whatever just try small steps at the time.

Well, this movie is as most French movies for me! High quality and really fun to watch! With a sense of humor that transcends national borders and languages, this was a truly fun-to-watch movie. The fathers of the bride and groom were two amazing roles, getting so many laughs! I enjoyed also the sons in law with all the rivalry and of course the end that was much expected but was still satisfying. I would like to see less "nation-specific" jokes that only French can actually get, but other than that this is a movie that you will enjoy. Its quite lengthy but it's not slacking at any point, so time will fly. I would say that this is a nice movie to relax with after a tiring day, and go to bed lightheaded and filled with a pleasant feeling all in all.

Christian Clavier is a comedy legend. It works as a guarantee that the film which he is starring in won't disappoint you. But I'm also glad that a film with this ensemble cast isn't just merely focusing on him and his comedy talent. Everybody in the film gets their spot to shine. Everybody has to deliver a great performance otherwise the film would collapse on itself. Especially the three sons-in-law have a great chemistry together and are extraordinary funny.The plot allows the writers and filmmakers to play with and discuss many important and serious issues, but to present in a humorous and way. Just imagine, that you as a parent of four daughters, get three sons of law with a different religion, ethnic background and not one of them get well with each other. You hope that the last daughter will bring you and ideal contender who meets you demands of a perfect man for your daughter.The French have always been masters at comedy although in the last couple of years that trend has lost a little bit of steam, but it seems to be going at full speed now. After the excellent international success of The Intouchables, comes another film which has a chance for an international recognition. While the main premise and issues may be a bit touchy for some people, every jab at someone be it from ethnic point or religious point can't insult anyone because that is not the point. The point of the humor is look back on the globalization and the problems our multicultural society brings.Relationships are made, men bond with each other but it is no way done in any pathetic way. From my experience this is exactly how things happen - the three sons in law become friends in sharing the goal of being liked the by the father of the family. They become friends in the childlike fashion. Or Clavier's Claude befriends the last rival standing in the way of her fourth daughter to have a happy marriage, by simply having the same hobby - fishing.With 90 minute runtime this comedy doesn't have any spare time to slow down. This is laugh out ride since the start until the finish. I can remember only a handful of times when I have experienced the entire theater to be laughing out loud like this. This is a perfect comedy with the perfect cast and premise.
