Take a really bad English rom com and translate into French and market toward the Oxford over 50s Friday night market et voila; Potiche (Trophy Wife). The clue's in the title and it certainly lives up to it's name; a 'potiche' of a film - all bland cuteness on the outside with nothing of substance underneath. Contrived lightheartedness which will inevitably charm the passive many and disappoint any serious cinema lover; like a Blockbuster without the action or a pixelated porn film with subtitles. Save for the really promising opening sequence; la blague qui rapidement tourne mal. Little White Lies rather alarmingly gives this film 4 stars; I guess I finally understand the magazine's title.
