Very well executed

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This film unveils its sense only at "THE END", for it is a frightening nightmare (un cauchemar): The protagonist has severe psychological problems because he was left by his wife and obviously lost his beloved dog, a setter who used to accompany him. In his dream he tries to overcome his problems in a drastic way: He is lost in the forest, i.e. in reality he doesn't know a way out from his problems - he is losing his dog who will never come back in reality. Finally he meets a woman who was obviously raped by two men at the same time; when he brings her in his home, he tries to care for her in order to win her sympathy. But instead of being grateful, this woman kills him - a symbol for the loss of his wife where he thought that instead of leaving him she should have been grateful for him. In his dream, surprisingly two men help him out of his desperate situation. The solution of this horrible story comes at the end of the movie when the beginning of the story is told in reality. At the Berlin film festival the director, Guillaume Nicloux, explained that it was a must to turn this film with none other than Gérard Depardieu. And he was right: Depardieu fitted in this role perfectly and after a long period - after "La tête en friche", "Small World", "Potiche" and "Welcome to New York", it is a film with Depardieu which is worth while to be watched.
