Claude y Marie Verneuil son un matrimonio muy tradicional, ambos católicos y padres de cuatro hijas, a las que han tratado de inculcar sus valores y costumbres. Pero no siempre esto ha sido una tarea fácil... La pareja pasó el primer mal trago con la noticia del matrimonio de su hija mayor con un musulmán, a éste fue seguido el de su segunda hija con un judío y al de la tercera con un chino. Aunque el matrimonio trata de mantener una mente abierta, en el fondo, siguen depositando todos sus esperanzas en su hija menor, esperan que al menos ella se en la iglesia. El optimismo de los Verneuil aumenta cuando la joven conoce a un muchacho católico con el que comenzará a salir. ¿Conseguirán los Verneuil que al fin una de sus hijas continúe sus tradiciones?

Antes que nada, elogio al distribuidor checo por la exitosa y sin alteraciones traducción. Un ligero cambio en el lenguaje no importa, en términos de significado encaja y es gracioso. Me reí desde el principio hasta el final, las comedias sobre prejuicios, racismo, problemas familiares y la intolerancia humana mutua me agradan absolutamente. Christian Clavier ha envejecido un poco y se ha vuelto más pálido debido a sus enfrentamientos con Sarkozy y otros sinvergüenzas similares de la UMP, pero sigue siendo un comediante de primera, que puede actuar incluso solo con su expresión facial. El elenco de actores relativamente desconocido también contribuye al éxito general de la película y no me sorprende en absoluto el éxito entre el público en los países que tienen que lidiar con el estigma de las potencias coloniales y las dificultades actuales relacionadas con los inmigrantes.

This movie is rumored to be one of the most successful films made in France this year. And it is no wonder. Firstly, it’s a comedy and almost everybody likes those, and secondly it’s leaning brutally (and in a rather xenophobic way) into almost all minorities who keep immigrating into France and with which France has a lot of trouble these days. But for the real xenophobes on this site I must say that everybody in this movie was very likable (especially the daughters whom I simply wanted to kiss) so I was able to enjoy this film to the fullest. I’m giving the fifth star for Christian Clavier, who portrays an absolutely perfect character of the father who is unable to welcome any Asians, Blacks, Arabs or Jews in his family. Well, he got really lucky with his sons in law.

A comedy in which the European masters of filmmaking shine again. This French production is, in short, reliable quality. What pulls the film up is above all a perfect idea, solid acting performances and a lot of interesting, ironic and intelligent dialogues. I recommend before starting the film, to find out as much as you can about all the religions (traditions, customs, national food) so that you don't get lost during some of the funny scenes. For me, awesome although I didn't roll on the floor laughing, it's very enjoyable and entertaining. Suitable for the whole family. 80%.

Those who choose films based on famous directorial aces will probably avoid Serial (Bad) Weddings. Those who seek the presence of movie stars also have no reason to waste time with this film. However, it is the most successful film of 2014 in terms of the audience in France, which was rare agreement by the audience and film critics alike. At a time when almost every third French person chooses right-wing radicals, when smaller armies can be assembled from French Muslims fighting for the extremist Islamic State in the Middle East, when anti-Semitic attacks engulf the country, it is simply nice to see a film that handles the burning issue of coexistence in a multiethnic society, clashes, and the search for religious and ethnic identity with comic detachment and aims for mutual understanding and a classic happy ending. The four charming sisters, although they have their differences, are able to find their way to each other through all the quarreling. There's nothing really deep here, as it is instead a matter of pure relaxation, a popular comedy that does not have ambitions to conquer the festival scene and attack the rankings of prestigious titles compiled by recognized critics. However, it is tastefully made and I cannot say anything bad about it. It's pleasant to watch, although it certainly isn't anything essential. Overall impression: 75%.

I really enjoyed Serial (Bad) Weddings. I have to say, I haven't laughed so much in a movie theater in a long time. Imagine being a die-hard Catholic French parent and your daughters find a Jew, an Arab, a Chinese and a black man and you're in for a good dose of funny scenes. Christian Clavier is a really good comedian, but the other actors aren't lagging behind either. All in all, a very good comedy that perfectly fulfilled its purpose.

I don't know if it's a good idea to create an agitation for equality by saying that everyone involved – white, Arab, Jewish, Chinese, or black – has only one thing in common, and that's that they're all morons. The women here are male-dependent Cosmopolitan hysterics, either completely vain or mentally unbalanced, and the men are overgrown five-year-old brats. It tries to be a little irreverent, but it would have had to have been made by someone with some balls and, more importantly, the ability to build timing for the individual jokes. As it was, I found the funniest moments to be the ones that didn't actually involve racial or religious diversions at all, like the casual discarding of an electronic cigarette or the running gag with the ultra-depressing images of one of the main daughters.

I'm not exactly a fan of French cinema, but I still had a lot of fun with this comedy. Under different circumstances, I would have given the film four stars, but I felt like it was filmed at the request of the EU chief of propaganda, so I took one star down. In real life, big family celebrations tend to get pretty challenging. I don't even want to imagine the kind of hell that would break loose at such a multicultural family’s get-together.
