Review derails in less than twelve hours after previous. Les chevres! (The Goats! in literal English) – 65 minutes.


Trailer showed it will a hilarious comedy, because I was laughing many times, and Fred Cavaye did writing and directing of powerful drama Pour elle. Doesn’t matter.

 

There were places of funny, but not often. Sometimes, which will come to absolute, the authors of screenplay displayed an inability to joke. It will with very few of low humor which aren’t worst and intentions to make fun will become unpleasant eventually, because I disliked characters and situations. Things will turn difficult without necessity in this film about lawyer who protects a goat from murder where presenting on court nephew destroys protection of protagonist by speaking outside thing what makes his act speechless in reason of his doing. A court procedure wasn’t real before, but flick looked as comedy before that. All before acts slide out from point to that moment after all. A misunderstanding was only to the lawyer who discovered a substantial evidence but he presents it in the very end.

 

If Indian film has dances in final, a French one always puts a love line which makes Les chevres! predictable. It was the beginning of crumbling of comedy, because you mustn’t think about this.

 

Funny, a flick does service to political correctness by giving Negro and Asian in France of the middle of XVII century and these people keep high office (a first is a priest and a second is a stenographer.) but it does harsh roasting to regional nationalities and people with disabilities. That calls paradox.

 

I already was thinking before watching on comedies with Louis de Funes and by Frances Veber and Jean-Marie Poire. When they were exquisite.
