Yet another great movie from Quebec
11 August 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I just read other comments on this movie, with some people finding it shallow. I agree the cavemen bits are sometimes overdone, but I thought the whole movie was good. It really represents what's happening in Québec to the 25-35 age group, i.e., late pregnancies, abortions, and I believe it depicts a reality that is not exclusive to eastern French Canadians, but, rather, something happening in today's occidental societies. Robitaille and Pearson are natural, great, as usual, while I felt Trogi seems less confident in front of a camera. This is perhaps more obvious in Québec-Montréal, but can be noted here too. Being a Quebecer, I love when I see characters that are "true to type", that sometimes swear, and even women do. Because in real life, we almost all do, in certain situations! Truly a great movie, very touching. I ended up feeling a lot for the boys in the movie, surely because I understand them, i'm one of them myself, this is my society, and ultimately my problems. Go see this movie!
