| Original Score: B | Sep 7, 2011
Salvadori and his fellow screenwriters invent clever complications to keep us amused.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 12, 2006
A light, entertaining comedy with little, if any, redeeming value, other than a few good laughs.

This dumb romantic comedy is not in the same class with Jean Renoir's masterful Boudu Saved From Drowning, though it toys with the same plot line.
| Original Score: C- | Aug 27, 2005
Although the ingredients are excellent, the result is an overcooked comedy more often provoking indigestion than laughter.

A lightweight farce that remains enjoyable primarily for the time spent with Auteuil.

Auteuil... finds himself in Antoine's situation, helping out a hapless wreck and being dragged down in the process.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 16, 2005
The movie doesn't ask you to laugh at somebody's unhappiness, just the incredibly absurd situations that arise when misery has two goofballs for company.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 15, 2005
Apres Vous ... is less peculiar but considerably more contrived, more forced than Girl on the Bridge.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 15, 2005
Unfolds with the light and civilized touch that Americans associate with French farce, but it's as contrived as any Hollywood comedy.

The result may be a high-concept souffl, but its blackly comic tone and Auteuil's caffeinated whippet of a performance help lend it a cockeyed charm.

If anyone tries to insist that you come along to see the film, it's best to reply, Aprs vous, and then head in the other direction.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 13, 2005
Plays like some kind of weak joke in which two men keep repeating the line to each other.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 10, 2005
French fluff at its creepiest: illogical, exasperating, overlong and based on characters who are just as empty as the creatures who inhabit Hollywood fluff.

You should come out of a film like Apres Vous with your heart as light and fluffy as a souffle. But this farce, credited to four chefs, er, writers, is as heavy and leaden as meatloaf.

As the character gains confidence, Garcia tones down the tics and actually makes Louis likable.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 8, 2005
What started off as a mild but enjoyable comic trifle got progressively more irritating as it wore on for almost two hours.
