Lucas Falchi rated ★ 7/10
Le film se déroule sur une semaine ou l’on suit le patron d’une entreprise de fabrication de balance incarnée par javier barden qui se demene pour ses employés et surtout pour le prix d’excellence qu’il convoite Malgré toute sa bonne volonté tout le monde lui met de baton dans les roues. Ce qui rend le personnage touchant et drole Le films est tout du long sur un ton decaler et certaine scène sont vraiment drole Il y’a un léger sous texte antiraciste qui sert surtout un propos anticapitaliste En tournant le role du patron a la derision mais surtout en que meme un bon patron reste un patron.
