CGiii Comment

Never was a film so aptly named.

The french farce has become a tired, deflated joke...tediously vulgar, slapstick mayhem...this is no exception.

There is a strand of a good story - the lonely gay bar owner looking for love...she gives the only credible performance.

The rest...junk.
