I was really expecting to laugh but I found myself grimacing throughout this film. I must admit that I advanced it forward more than a couple of times. This so-called Minister is a sour mix between the Inspector Jacques Clouseau and Cantinflas’ characters. Full of stamina, charismatic, and extremely and ridiculously French, the Minister is very well portrayed by Thierry Lhermitte whose performance overshadows the one of Raphaël Personnaz as his new speech writer. As for the quality of this satire’s script, the rest of the cast and the pace of this movie? Not just boring but pointless!
