Un homme pressé's reviews
Media reviews
Fotogramas
As well as the film 'Intouchables' (2011) worked as a comedy, Hervé Mimran's movie does too. And if it does, it isn't because of its high elaborated estructure, or because the well being learning. It's because Mimran's language game, where Luchini shows off.
Cinemanía
'Un homme pressé' is a new attempt to tell, to specify, to fabulate around the labyrinths that inhabit our brain, more pressing and painful when it breaks down a bit.
The Hollywood Reporter
Beyond all the clever wordplay, Mimram?s film follows a rather obvious narrative path as Alain recovers and makes his way toward personal redemption, especially in the eyes of the loving daughter (Rebecca Marder) that he neglected for so long. A subplot involving the therapist?s backstory also feels rather predictable, as if the filmmakers felt obliged to give the side characters more weight but came up with the easiest scenarios possible.
