Olé! (2005)

Olé! is a French film comedy first released in 2005, directed by Florence Quentin.  The film stars Gad Elmaleh, Gérard Depardieu, Sabine Azéma, Valeria Golino and Gaëlle Bona.  Our overall rating for this film is: very poor.


François Veber is the wealthy boss of a successful world class company.  Ramon Holgado is his chauffeur, his confident and general dog’s body, much to the annoyance of his wife Carmen, who dreams of starting a new life in Spain...

Florence Quentin’s second film is a marginal improvement on her first abysmally lightweight offering J’ai faim!!! (2001) but still has very little to commend it.  Even the promise of such talented performers as Gad Elmaleh, Gérard Depardieu and Sabine Azéma fails to make up for the rambling, very silly narrative and the most tediously caricatured characterisation.  It’s not quite death by boredom, but it comes pretty close.
