It's over-the-top but light movie about spoiled kids of a self-made man and how he is trying to change things for the better.

It might be interesting to those who have problems with their own spoiled adult kids.

Him having a heart attack is relatable to many with their own problematic brats.

A decent premise and likeable and entertaining performances from Artus, Tom Leeb, Louka Meliava and Camille Lou notwithstanding, I can't help wishing that this largely acceptable feature had been produced as a miniseries instead. It just feels like so much of it would've benefitted from more time: more time to develop the plot, more time to witness the main characters' respective arcs (and maybe even to understand their individual evolutions) and more time to get to know the largely underused support characters. And definitely more screen time for Lou and Leeb, who tend to command your attention in most of the scenes they are in. The performances still make for an enjoyable hour and a half, though I was a little disappointed with the resolution. To be fair, this is something else more runtime would probably have resolved.

This is a decent comedy but nothing extraordinary about it. Sure, it sends home a message but this is not delivered with conviction. It's like it comes and it goes. It doesn't really stick in the viewer's mind.

The plot is interesting. It was fun to watch when the kids had to start working, there could have been much to that though. Some funny moments, but there are better comedy movies.

Dad bartek hires people to raid his family estate to force the kids to go find jobs. This sounds like an old black and white u.s. Film from 1930, with robert taylor or william powell, but until i remember it, it IS a remake of Madcaps from 1949. So the kids go get jobs. And they finally all start talking, as a family. For the first time. Dad realizes the communication issues and work ethics problems are not all on the offspring. Lessons to be learned all around. And the kids have some surprises in store for papa as well. Predictable, silly but fun. Directed by nicolas cuche.
