As mentioned in the other review, I've watched the first film and its sequel back to back on a whim, having never seen either. This one's definitely much worse, just in regards to its originality, but the rest of it still stands: it's not very funny, and very offensive, but we get more barely-dressed M'Barek and one or two good laughs.

which side of the wall you're on.

Lively filmed, well-staged and supported by a classical selection of pieces, for the most part, it reminds me of many different things in retrospect. There's Dürrenmatt and Pelevin as writers whose tone seems to echo in the…
