Critics' reviews
- "One looks to Leconte for some of the finest, most sophisticated and compassionate filmmaking coming out of France, not for a situation comedy."
- "Although Leconte allows for a certain warmth to run through the film, he thankfully stays away from sentimentality. Therein lays the charm."
- "[Director] Leconte and his perfectly suited stars have given us one of those light comedies that carry a world of lovely weight."
- "An unconvincing replica of the dizzy situation comedies that Hollywood poured out in double and triple bills in the thirties and forties"
