Rater #2
4/10. Maybe I have something against French comedy-dramas (hence my review
for Amelie, less than everyone else), but this one didn't work for
me. Two men are supposed to have met on a train (which I didn't see,
either it wasn't in the movie or because I walked in about 2 minutes
late) and be fascinated by each other's jobs, one a retired teacher
and one a bank robber. They then are supposed to change jobs,
according to everything I heard before. Instead of an interesting
premise, they just "become friends", although the bank robber
doesn't seem to be enjoying himself. They don't even change jobs, and
what ensues is an hour and a half of a creaky drama, with the teacher
way too enthusastic. There are better art house movies to waste your
money on.
