I really enjoyed the movie. It had some cringe moments that I think, everyone experiences once in a while. Florence Foresti played the part of Jeanne perfectly and the jokes made everyone laugh. Some of the scenes were definitely cringe-worthy but they made for a good movie. I thought the plot line was OK, however, it got a bit confusing in the middle, but it worked out in the end. I think the subtitles could be a little slower, as I found them too fast to read. This is not one of my favorite movies, but it is great to watch in class.

Good movie
French humour or lack thereof
The super stupid plot is about Jeanne, a French woman who's the voice of Jennifer, an American soap star. Jeanne gets unemployed and decides to travels to L. A. when Jennifer decides to quit the soap for personal reasons.
In L. A. Jeanne meets Farres, a French guy, and both of them get involved in super stupid antics.
I am not French, but I speak both English and French and I found the dialogues extremely irritating because Jeanne's English is horrible and she mixes French and English words, and the Americans are equally bad with their spoken French.
Strictly for the French market, because the two leads, Foresti and Debbouze, are famous comedians - in France - which means that their French audience is probably convinced they are funny when they are not. Foresti in particular is unbearable and overact like crazy.
