5/10
French Home Shopping Network
17 April 2011
Warning: Spoilers
France and Olivier have started a version of the American television channel where all kinds of products are peddled to a captive audience with nothing better to do. The things they sell are presented in unusual ways. The couple has been married for ten years and the union begins to show signs of stress. Added to the difficulties they are facing, they find themselves targeted to losing control of their shopping network if the wealthy Sofia has her way.

The comedy written by its director, Tonie Marshall and Pierre-Erwan Guillaume is only mildly funny in spite of the presence of talented Karin Viard and Francois Cluzet, a man with an uncanny resemblance of Dustin Hoffman. Nathalie Baye, who appeared on Ms. Marshall's "Venus beaute (institut)", is on hand to do a cameo. Veteran actress Micheline Presle, who has a small role, happens to be the mother of the director.
