I tried watching this mess in the hope of something funny but when the dumb husband enters dressed as a woman.... OMG. The writers could not write a funny line or scene so got desperate. What an annoying waste of time! Annoying characters, plot and....
Plot summary
Dumped by her husband and downsized out of her job, Marie-Francine has to move back in with her parents - at the age of 50. They treat her like a child, but she soon finds love with Miguel, a chef who doesn't admit to her that he is in the same situation. It's not easy having a young heart in a middle-age body, but Marie-Francine proves to us that 50 is the new 30.

50 IS THE NEW MEH
Bad movie.
I must say I saw this movie in french, my natural language.
Well, it's crap. Full of cliché. Bad jokes, stupid plot.
The father is an idiot, the mother is a silly person. Inconsistent characters. The love plot between Lemercier and Timsit is totally unbelievable.
Did I said "cliches" ? Well, Lemercier has a twin sister = cliché ! Lemercier see Timsit trying to comfort her twin sister, so she believe he's cheating on her = cliché ! The mother has intercourse with another shop owner since decades = cliché !
Lemercier plays a scientist (research branch) and got an electronic cigarettes shop from her parents ; guess what she does ? She smokes real cigarettes while her shop is open, but no problem, customers are dumb enough to not smell tobacco odor.
OK, that's enough, I gave it a 2 on 10. Total waste of time.
Heartful and funny
I do not write reviews, and I know my review will not be read much, because what is called 'Foreign-films' pages are rarely visited by English speaking visitors. Since this funny movie was grossly misjudged by the public, I overrated it slightly for compensation. I will just add this is an intelligent romantic comedy which is not very common, full of enjoyable characters and events. Extremely lovely and entertaining !
