Story - Two brothers get a phone call that their estranged father has died. They are total opposites and don't get along very well. One is a retired tennis pro that is separated from his family and the other an Internet dating service, that has no luck with the ladies. They journey to their hometown to attend the funeral and no one is there but Chloe, the sister they never knew about. Then they head to their childhood home to search for clues about their dad.
Things are not what they seem, and they soon learn that Chloe is not all she appears to be. Next they go on a hunt for their not dead father, as Chloe reveals that he is just missing. Some funny things happen, but then it gets a little sad. Things are revealed and mysteries solved.
What Did I think - My WonderTwin and I love us some French movies. We watch them separately most of the time and then live tweet (text) commentary to each other. We love Amelie, The Intouchables and especially Stranger by the Lake (it gave her a lady boner). So I found My French Film Festival on Apple TV this morning and decided to check out this flick based on the preview. It looked quirky and funny.
Well it was alright, most of the funny parts were in the preview. It had some good parts, but overall I would say that it was average.
The actors were good and believable in their roles. The story was good and kept me interested for the most part. The best part of the movie is when they went to their father's mistress' house. So if you come across this on TV or Netflix, you will have a few laughs and a heartwarming ending.
Snack & Bevies - Buttery or chocolate croissants and an ice cold Kronenbourg beer 1669
