After a mediocre second film, there is a return to the qualities of the first one. It's a French quality standard where everything is fine, but of course it doesn't have the same quality as the Lacheau/Boudali duo, who are closer to my heart. Vyšehrad reigns supreme in the comedy department this year (I almost fell over laughing in the cinema, even during the second screening). In the trio, Christian Clavier and Pascal N'Zonzi again score the most points, and they are joined by the daddies of the other couples, which was a safe bet. New characters, a new infusion of racism, xenophobic innuendo and cultural insults and it works again. Although only two or three scenes have stuck in my mind, there is not much situational humour and some of the innuendos are not understood unless you are very familiar with the cultural differences of the countries, hence the film is also targeted at the 30-40+ age group. Overall, a pleasant 90 minutes spent, and since I like comedies right after horror and action, I'm glad they are still making them, even though the Americans have been completely stagnant in this genre for a few years now. The atmosphere in the cinema was not great, not many people laughed (I was one of the few). 7.5/10.

The creators Serial (Bad) Weddings venture for the third time into the waters of seemingly racist and xenophobic humour, which is still very correct and makes you laugh, even if the charm of the original first film is a bit gone. The ensemble has grown to include more characters and I think the number of them bordered on the excessive, but you can still follow them. For ninety minutes you are once again immersed in the joys and sorrows of the large Verneuil family, whose members are put to more than one test. The character of Helmut was downright unnecessary and the plot could have done without him. I hope that this is the conclusion of a trilogy whose possible sequel will have quite an uphill battle, and might end up being too overcomplicated. A weaker four stars!
