Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

info-19820 whether or not you enjoyed the mild humor of Ned divine then you will like this movie also.The tame humor is disseminate all-round and spectators will be grateful for the modern ways formulated to keep the doctor happily deceived. They all join together to fool an outsider in order to money in. Both are set in a little coastal village where the inhabitants are fewer than prosperous and eager to advance their circumstance. This movie is not a madcap, zany side-splitter, but whether or not you want an gratifying, clever film, this is one of the better to come along. This movie has a heap of matchings with waking Ned divine.

Claudio Carvalho When the fishes finished in the small fishing village of St. Marie-La-Mauderne eight years ago, the pride and joy of the place ended. The unemployed fishermen have been financially supported by the government welfare checks for two weeks and have been living with shame for the month. When a company raises the possibility of building a small factory in the village, the dwellers need only a full-time doctor living in the community to make the dream come true. But they do not find any doctor that want to move to St. Marie-La-Mauderne. When the thirty-three years old Montreal's doctor Christopher Lewis (David Boutin) has an incident in a highway, the former Mayor of St. Marie and presently highway patrolman forces him to stay in the village for a month. Meanwhile, the locals under the leadership of Germain Lesage (Raymond Bouchard) bug his telephone and plot a scheme to convince him to sign a five years contract with the village."La Grande Séduction" was a great surprise for me: I saw this DVD on sale and after checking IMDb User Rating of 7.4/10 (1,208 votes), I decided to buy it. I found an extremely delightful dramatic comedy, funny most of the time, but with a profound message about a contemporary worldwide problem: the unemployment. If you reader, wants to see a refreshing and awarded comedy, winner of fourteen awards and with eleven nominations, try "La Grande Séduction", and you may have also a good surprise and love it. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "A Grande Sedução" ("The Great Seduction")

AngeLissa This is one of those films you enjoy watching with a friend. It s funny in a nice way. You get attached to the village and somehow you'll start wishing you could live there. - This is the tale of a run down french Canadian village on a small island off the east coast of Canada is in need of a doctor in order to survive... The villagers try to seduce a city doctor into moving on the island. No sex... no drugs... no violence... (i can almost hear the "awwww"). But they will use whatever means they've got to try to convince him to stay. As they do, you see the people's hope growing and they all seem to be alive again. They put their differences aside and unite in their quest to find a doctor. Do not expect another "Doc Hollywood". This movie has an innocent charm about it... This movie has definitely seduced me!!!

Dreamer1 As un maudit anglais (apologies for any attrocious spelling to my Québecois brethren), I recommend this film highly. I had the pleasure of meeting the director, Jean-François Pouliot, on a shuttle bus from Salt Lake City to Park City, Utah during the 2004 Sundance Festival and what I find truly remarkable about him is just how down-to-earth he was as if he hadn't done anything particularly remarkable. This even though the film had already opened in Toronto (and elsewhere) to warm reviews. The film's been well received wherever it's been shown though, like many Québecois films, will be most treasured by the people who best understand the linguistic subtleties that don't necessarily translate to English. I haven't had a chance to check out any of his previous works but will be eagerly waiting for his next directorial outing.
