A first person diatribe against modern consumerist society as seen through the eyes of a cynical advertising executive whose efforts to get fired from his job backfire as he keeps getting promoted.

A great satire of the advertising world

Jean Dujardin is amazong in this very acid satire of the advertising industry. Dark and funny, a delight!

Wasted film stock, money and time. Not funny any time, any scene.
Couldn't care less about Octave, the star of this disaster.
Awesome ad for the director to do music videos and bad ads. Films? He lost his way early and often.
Excrement, vomit play big in this mess.
Excess is not a quality of art, cinema or storytelling.
It got made, but it's not worth the time or money.
It's on the director. No one else could have saved this. Unentertaining.
Nothing like it

The description of the movie in iTunes is so bad...The fiction is an adaptation of the book "99 F" written by Frederic Beigbeder in 2000. Having really enjoyed reading the novel I have to say the movie is good too, it manages to translate the story onto the screen while respecting the novel's universe, which is always a tricky exercise for adaptations. Jean Dujardin is also perfect in the role and plays brillantly throughout the fiction. Overall, this is fun experience, yet quite particular given the story.
Could not finish it

I love Jean Dujardin but this movie feels story less and over done. Stopped watching halfway through.

This is a great satyre of the Advertising industry. Like an irreverent Mad Men for the 21st Century! Great performance from Jean Dujardinof OSS 117 and the winner of the Best Actor category at the Cannes Film Festival this year!
