Reviews

The Couchpotatoes First of all don't believe any of the positive reviews because they come from people involved in this movie or at least that know somebody that was. I do like Benoit Poelvoorde but not in this movie, just because the movie is not good. Benoit Poelvoorde is one of those actors that has good movies, the funny ones, but also a lot of bad movies, and Le Grand Soir is definitely one of the bad ones. Even if you like some Punk music, like I do, this movie is still garbage. The only good thing was the song La Bière from Les Garçons Bouchers, but I could have just listen to my CD instead of enduring this movie. Albert Dupontel plays the frustrated salesman, and he also annoying to watch. If they did one to bring a message about society they didn't achieve anything. This movie is not rebellous at all. A movie to forget about, as soon as possible.
kosmasp But it all depends on your mood, when/while you are watching this. Because while it is sort of a portrayal of society (a bleak look at parts of it), it is more at home in the comedy genre. But not the laugh out loud kind of comedy. The darker and subtler one, with weird characters and even weirder (and sometimes benign) plot developments.Our two main characters are connected, but while they seem different, the only difference seems to be their social status. Not for very long though, as one of the brothers has to face something no one likes. Out of that situation and some very long shots, humor arises with the interactions you are watching. Not everyones tea and more likely to alienate people than please them. But there is joy in that too ...
raphaellebk The film is of the films absurd. The players play actually the absurd ism. The punk, M. Poelvoorde, is the Belg genius. The realizers do Mammuth, another absurd genius. I looked on this film with eyes of a film fan, and I was made to be very happy. I looked on the cinema Max Linder, which of course is the most appropriate cinema to look on a film as this. It is always nice that films show outside of Paris, the real France. The businessman, M. Dupontel plays actually in 9 mois ferme, hilarious also. I propose to you see this film also. I love projects of these film makers. le Grand Soir is not grand, it is an horrible night. Of course the music is incredible from the Wampas.
bidochon So this film is based on a really poorly written screenplay. There's no humor, unless you're young enough (teen) and maybe you will like, but even then.The film tells the story of 2 brothers. One punk (we don't know how it happened), one salesman (a loser... for no reason). The salesman get laid off, and slowly becomes a punk like his brother. The idea behind the film could actually make a good story, to remove stereotypes, to understand how one would become a homeless punk...But the idea behind the film is to make you laugh, and the writing is just not good at all. The jokes are... well.. drunk's jokes.Enjoy. Sorry for not being more specific.
