Hip talk-radio host and journalist Mingus (Chris Rock) and his French photographer girlfriend, Marion (Julie Delpy), live cozily in a New York apartment with their cat and two young children from previous relationships. But when Marion's jolly father (played by Delpy's real-life dad, Albert Delpy), her oversexed sister, and her sister's outrageous boyfriend unceremoniously descend upon them for an overseas visit, it initiates two unforgettable days of family mayhem. With their unabashed openness and sexual frankness, the triumvirate is bereft of boundaries or filters. . . and no one is left unscathed in its wake. The visitors push every button in the couple's relationship, truly putting it to the test. How will the couple fare. . . when the French come to New York? (Magnolia Pictures)

English The French Julie Delpy shot a relationship chill-out movie where dialogues have the most power. However, it also features some pretty weird people and sometimes also pretty weird artists. Oddly enough, in this movie, Chris Rock is the most normal person walking around New York at that time. It’s a nice chill-out flick. Nothing special, but the crazy French family is flawless. If nothing else, that makes it worth watching. ()

English I haven't seen "2 Days in Paris", which is a crucial piece of information, although I don't think it's that big of a deal. In fact, I probably wouldn't have even noticed if they hadn't mentioned some guy named Jack, who the main female character (also the screenwriter and director, Julie Delpy) was dating and apparently spent "2 Days in Paris" with. Now she has a new boyfriend, Chris Rock. I have to say, I quite like this loudmouth. He's funny and not unnecessarily theatrical when it's not needed. Sometimes he's very down-to-earth, he acts, he doesn't overact, and I always appreciate that. Plus, this comedy has another plus. It makes fun of the French. Well, it also makes fun of Americans, but personally, I'm always delighted when someone pokes a little fun, even a little more, at the snobs. The humor in this comedy is mainly conversational, although the airport tour is also excellent. The ending of the film is not crucial, there is another moral message, but it's more bearable than in Adam Sandler's movies. The film is enjoyable and you'll have a pleasant feeling about it at the end, which I think is the main point. It's not something that will change your life, but it will pleasantly entertain you for an hour and a half. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2013/01/tobruk-valcik-s-basirem-2-dny-v-new.html ()
