Reception

The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a negative review, finding the films comedy as "puerile and naive whenever it’s not straightforwardly moronic", noting a list of American clichés and that "like in local box-office monsters Intouchables and Serial (Bad) Weddings, what passes for crude humor in France can be perceived as racially insensitive in the U.S. and elsewhere".^[6] The review commented on the writing as "staggeringly lazy and unfocused".
