Reviews
Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
ellarubypearson I cannot say that I particularly enjoyed watching this film. The film was often confusing at times because the characters would switch between French and English so often; in the end I wasn't sure which characters understood French. Jeanne (the main character) would often address Jeniffer (the Hollywood actress) in French, and Jeniffer would reply in English, even though it was made clear on several occasions she does not speak or understand French. However, some parts of the movie were entertaining, and made me laugh. I also thought that the film ending was kind of predictable, and the main characters were generally annoying, and the acting wasn't great. Overall, the movie was easy to watch, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who has not yet watched it.
timhobbe Get ready to cringe!The movie was pretty good and funny although it was very predictable, the movie was very slow in some areas. The actors were alright but sometimes it became weird instead of funny. Overall I recommend to watch the movie because it is very good and I laughed a lot. My favorite character was Pakistan security guard since he was very funny. The movie was pretty good and funny although it was very predictable, the movie was very slow in some areas.

The Squeerelist Read it here: http://squeerelist.blogspot.com/2013/06/hollywoo-2011.htmlJennifer Marshall is Hollywood's It Girl starring in the over-publicized TV show L.A. Couples. Jeanne is her French dubbing artist whose career depends on Marshall's fame. When Jennifer decides to retire after her co-star and boyfriend cheats on her, Jeanne feels like her own career is over. She flies to LA to meet Jennifer and try to make her reconsider... It's a funny and fresh movie displaying the views of the French on Hollywood and its excessive way of life. The main actors are very popular French comedians (Florence Foresti & Jamel Debbouze) and I think you'll find this movie funny if you already know Foresti's work. It may not be a good movie for someone who is not into contemporary French culture. The cast is very eclectic and you'll find American, French, Canadian actors and more. Hollywoo may not end up in my Top 10 Comedies but I spent an enjoyable moment watching it. You should definitely give it a try and share your opinion with me!1 reason to watch: if you have any interest in French comedians
Maxime Rafalimanana I can understand why this movie was not a big success. It plays on the idea of a dual culture. Florence Foresti and Jamel Debouze are constantly switching between broken English and french and making fun of a lot of American stereotypes and on the way French people speak English. After having lived for a while in the US, I found myself laughing a lot just because I got the reference. They might be super witty but it was enough for me. Foresti was playing her usual character (the one in her stand up comedy) so it was funny if you already like that exuberant character. Jamel played a character that I think he never played before: a kind of Arsene Lupin of this century and I think it was a surprising element of this movie. To conclude, I would say that it's the kind of movie that would mostly appeal to people knowing a bit of both French and American culture and speaking both language helps too.
