Viewers generally find 'What's in a Name?' to be a delightful mix of comedy and drama, centered around a dinner party that spirals into chaos following a provocative baby name suggestion. The film is praised for its sharp dialogue and strong performances, particularly from Patrick Bruel and Valérie Benguigui. Despite its single-setting format, the movie captivates with its dynamic character interactions and the unfolding of deep-seated resentments.
👍 Sharp dialogue and strong performances.
👎 Single-setting format may feel restrictive to some.
