Movie Reviews of The Dinner Game
Movie Review: Worth every Euro!
Summary: 5 Stars
I came in on the middle of this film on HBO one afternoon while flipping through channels. I paused for a moment, got hooked, and spent the next hour laughing like a crazed fool. This is perhaps the funniest movie I have seen in the past decade. When you think it can't get any worse for the main character, or any funnier, it does! Having missed the first 30 minutes on HBO, I rushed out to buy the DVD, and have enjoyed watching this film again and again. It's PG-13, namely because of a few bad words and some content dealing with adultery.Movie Review: "OUI" enjoyed this delightful French fare!
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I recently ordered this French farce from the AMAZON menu and thoroughly enjoyed it. Although the DVD's length is barely 90 minutes, the film's plot is fully-developed and well-paced. If you want a good laugh, you will discover "The Dinner Game" to be a tasty treat! If you still hunger for another helping of French comedy cuisine after sampling "The Dinner Game", try "The Closet". "The Closet" is another amusing entree featuring many of the same actors as "The Dinner Game".Movie Review: You'll laugh so hard you just might mess your pants...
Summary: 5 Stars
...it's that funny! And yet, as mobby_uk observed, there is a poignancy underneath it all. Some are put off by the premise, a dinner that is a competition to see who can bring the most ridiculous guest. Don't be. It's an ugly idea but a deeply humane movie. Jacques Villeret's portrayal of François Pignon is side-splittingly wonderful, hilarious and touching. And writer/director Francis Verber, who also had a hand in writing La Cage aux Folles, is an international treasure.Movie Review: Entertaining +++
Summary: 5 Stars
The movie is based on a funny story. The two main characters act flawlessly in this movie. Most if not all scenes are produced in 2-3 rooms. The movie is intense in that there are very few moment of idleness. Everything that happens in the movie is used to trigger a new event. You do not have to understand french to enjoy this movie, but if you do you will laugh a lot more. If you are feeling down, I can think of no better movies to watch.Movie Review: Funny is a small word
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie shows the French society...Mocker, sour...They need a scapegoat. Wonderful, well done, good rythm, dynamic...You should know French mentality before watching this movie, if not is not the same. My mother was French and I have been to France several times. I recognize French type in every scene. French is my mother tongue. In English there is not "punch".
