We see another great performance from two wonderful actors: Daniel Auteuil and Jamel Debbouze. These two actors have such a bit star on top of their heads. You can throw any role to these two and they will deliver. And I believe that the young Simon Faliu is on his way to real stardom as well. What a performance.

A remake of "Le Jouet" de Francis Weber, which I have not seen. But I am very happy to have watched this new version.

Not sure if this could happen in real life. It looks like a fairytale, but with money, anything is possible, right?

Sure every little piece of this story appears on other movies, either on their own or coupled with some others. But this really makes it shine.

After watching this movie, you can really only say that wealthy people are truly indulgent. They have insatiable desires, and as long as they have money, they have supervisors and teams to take care of everything for them. In fact, this movie provides a glimpse into how the real world operates. First, wealthy people always have a team to rely on. Think about it, without a team, who would execute their desires? Second, wealthy people often can't effectively spend time with their children to nurture shared experiences, and this is a central theme of the film. Paradoxically, the spoiled child forms an emotional connection with the male lead, even sparking jealousy in the wealthy parent. But this really brings me to my conclusion: you can change others by becoming the person they need. Third, if employees can't satisfy the boss, they are dismissed, no matter how good they were in the past. It's quite frightening, isn't it?

An 11 year old boy (whose mother recently past away) doesnt desire to play with anything anymore UNTIL that day he meets a funny employee of his rich father's business. Now he DEMANDS this employee to become his fulltime TOY. How will this turn out?

The good; the dialogues are natural, the timing of the jokes is good, the acting by the 2 leading grownup actors is solid.

The bad: this comedy lasts way too long. The middle part is stretching my patience. Perhaps kids wouldnt mind that it lasts too long, but on the other hand perhaps kids would mind even more than grownups that this comedy is long in the tooth, almost clocking 2 hours! Half an hour could have been easily cut out of it.

More bad: the kid actor is lacking in charisma. That's a bit of a bummer, because the kid actor is one of the 2 most important characters.

Even more bad: this is not a laugh out loud comedy. Merely an amusing, gentle story, with a few good jokes in between. Not bad, not great either...
