An unlikely story of friendship between Milann (Kev Adams), a young man on parole, who is forced to work in a retirement home rather than going to jail, and a larger-than-life group of retired people who are reluctant to accept this new recruit. Though as the endearing relationships between Milann and the band of seven inseparable friends form, they each in their own way, share their vision of life. (Madman Entertainment)

A pretty pleasant feel-good comedy about a man who goes from one job to another, only plays games on PlayStation, and doesn't have a great standard of living. He accidentally gets into trouble and will have to work two months of community service at a retirement home, where he will meet the likeable Gerard Depardieu (a former boxer and one of the best characters). Some of the characters are entertaining, though I expected a slightly crazier humor from the French. It's more of a pleasant and nice film, without any bursts of laughter to be expected. The story follows the classic template, but thanks to the likeable characters, pleasant pace, and feel-good atmosphere, it turns into a non-offensive one-off. (I liked the reference to the TV series Money Heist) 6/10.
