A pleasant comedy.

The moment of retirement is a common subject in the French cinema: generally the moment when a couple (a grandmother and a grandfather) feel the desire to live for themselves: but there obstacles and impediments: their sons or daughters have problems and need somebody to care for their children.This film is a pleasant comedy about this time of retirement and the performances of Michèle Laroque, Thierry Lhermitte, Judith Magre and Nicole Ferroni are quite good.

Charming, it wins us over with each exaggeration, striving to be politically correct, very good...

Marilou and Philippe are preparing to live their retirement years in Portugal, but family complications and their children's dependence on them seem to complicate their plans more and more each day.A delightful, but lovely French comedy, gentle and delicate to portray old age in a light and realistic way, with all the implications that this can bring, caring for/educating grandchildren, children, sons-in-law and the like, the daily lives of middle-class families, and here a useful social critique, with its dramatic aspects, and the slightly comical, peculiar and lovely air, and disguised, I love it... Charming, it wins us over with each exaggeration, striving to be politically correct, very good...
