Thought provoking film
Adapted from the director’s novel of the same name, this dystopian comedy challenges viewers to question themselves.
What would they do if the world as we know it stopped? What if the Earth’s natural resources were depleted due to overproduction and pollution? If climate change destroys everything, what if millions of people find themselves without water or electricity?
The audience largely appreciates this question. for that S Pbcit is “A very pleasant surprise on a realistic topic. An ecological film that prompts us to several questions.”
Loan B Thanks to Nicolas Vanier, he even asks himself: “I came out full of buried dreams, it gave me back my desires and life choices. First of all, it got me thinking.
This movie is gripping, funny, and all the characters are likable, each having their moment of resilience, which is great. Nicolas Vanier is at it again with this film that lives up to my expectations.
Stefan adds: “It brings more reflection than meets the eye, a good film that we hope is not as pre-emptive as this one, or that perhaps allows for a collective consciousness.”
The ecological aspect really interests the society. Allen 75 writing: “At first, a critique of the consumer society that destroys the world, but then an ode to nature, regeneration, humanity and, finally, full of optimism: today it feels good! And Eric Elmosnino is great.”
For Gilet™, “This is a new genre, post-apocalyptic comedy. The film, enjoyable to watch, deals with serious topics that are necessary. The playful tone goes well with the serious subject matter and the coexistence works well.“

for that JulietThe film is more interesting than it looks on paper: “Very pleasantly surprised by this movie! I expected a somewhat heavy comedy, but it was without considering the touch of Nicolas Vanier, the researcher and director.
The duo of Michaël Youn and Éric Elmosnino works very well. The ecological message is funny and interesting. Yannick Noah is a very gentle person and what a pleasure to see the very rare Barbara Schultz again.
Is the scenario too simple?
On the other hand, this world is upside down! It seems to suffer from its script and some viewers will find the actors overacting.
for that lionelb30This is a “A promising film on this subject and with this famous cast that we want to fall in love with immediately. Unfortunately, almost everything is fake: dialogues, acting, direction, and therefore the expected pleasure turns into a big disappointment.“
in turn Rvrichow writing: “The scenario is a bit simplified and idealized, but the idea is interesting. Beautiful pictures, as always, with Nicolas Vanier and the characters, caricatures of course, but quite handsome and talented and well directed by the actors.“
Leslie Dupont Note: “The grotesque story makes us think, but it just overplays, even the awkward acting. Not funny, enough to put you off going to the movies. It’s a screenplay, not a screenplay. “
In conclusion, the film’s faithful message about consumer society, greed, solidarity and ecology is appreciated, as well as the duet created by Michael Yun and Eric Elmosnino. On the other hand, the script, which is considered a bit too simple and the overacting according to 8% of the comments, is a weakness. This world turned upside down!
