This is a nice soap with some pleasant characters and good camera work, but it doesn't get off the ground. We get sorry-of interested in the characters, but the content is too thin. The actors just don't have enough to get their teeth into. The dialogue is very soap-opera-ish. It's very quickly forgettable.

Total waste of time!

French cinema at it's worst.
I have problems believing this film was even financed.
I had free tickets for this "avant-premiere" screening AND STILL THINK I OVERPAID!
Except for watching some "tecchnical" aspects of the film (long takes without cuts following certain characters and moving to follow another character) this film is a total waste of your time (and if you pay anything, A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY)!
Spend your time and money somewhere else - ANYWHERE ELSE!
1/10

What a nice movie! Great casting gathering French new talents (Frédéric Diefenthal, Emilie Dequenne, Olivier Sitruk, Arthur Jugnot, Lisa Martino, Manuel Blanc, Edouard Montoute, Elodie Navarre, Eric Savin, Vanessa Larre), intelligent story combining action, emotion and humor, smart lines, beautiful pictures... This film is a real oxygen bubble! It tackles crucial ideas, leaves you with good questions to think about (How can you deal with death? When do you become a grown-up? Is love eternal? What is your definition of fidelity? Is friendship indestructible? Is it always necessary to say the truth? What are you supposed to do with your life?...). And finally, it makes you realize how short life is and makes you want to get the best of it! Don't miss it!
expected a little more...but it's OK

my comment doesn't revel to much of the story and it doesn't have any spoilers.
If you love to watch movies like Reality Bites, Fasten(film from Denmark), 200 cigarettes and similar this should be worth watching. Story follows 10 friends all in mid-30' having a last "get-around" party at a lake house. With some wine,J&B and some weed some dirty little secrets are gonna find a way out in to a public. It's story about friendship and love. It's about love among friends and friendship among lovers. It's about life of ordinary people and there problems in every day life.
But be careful this isn't going to be best film about this topic that you have ever seen but it's OK and you should watch it, and you'll enjoy it if you don't expect yo much...
i like movies like this and there for give it 8/10.
