Yet another great movie from Quebec
I just read other comments on this movie, with some people finding it shallow. I agree the cavemen bits are sometimes overdone, but I thought the whole movie was good. It really represents what's happening in Québec to the 25-35 age group, i.e., late pregnancies, abortions, and I believe it depicts a reality that is not exclusive to eastern French Canadians, but, rather, something happening in today's occidental societies. Robitaille and Pearson are natural, great, as usual, while I felt Trogi seems less confident in front of a camera. This is perhaps more obvious in Québec-Montréal, but can be noted here too. Being a Quebecer, I love when I see characters that are "true to type", that sometimes swear, and even women do. Because in real life, we almost all do, in certain situations! Truly a great movie, very touching. I ended up feeling a lot for the boys in the movie, surely because I understand them, i'm one of them myself, this is my society, and ultimately my problems. Go see this movie!
An important movie that the Quebec had to realize
Horloge Biologique is a deep study on the fears that couples live when it is the time to have, to wait for or to raise a child. So, infidelity comes into play in the themes of the script written by the trio composed of Ricardo Trogi, Jean-Philippe Pearson and Patrice Robitaille. Those who already presented us Québec-Montréal in 2002, are coming back with a second feature film. All the dialogues are running around the same subject but without making the scenes boring. At the opposite, the conversations are full of funny jokes that loosen the tight feelings before the most dramatic scenes. The interpretation was really well chosen. Like their first movie, Jean-Philippe Pearson and Patrice Robitaille took the opportunity to get main roles and their talents achieve what you can expect from them. Pierre-François Legendre also has a role and these three actors compose the three characters that the viewer follow the evolution. The intrigues multiply themselves at an incredible rate, but still the interest in each of them stay at the same important level. In short, Horloge Biologique is an important movie that the Quebec had to realize, far from the special effects and the big actors that Hollywood knows how to sell us.
Refreshing movie
DIALOGS... That's what it takes. At least it's a big part of the credibility a movie can offer. And this one has it. We, québécois, suffer of one major handicap when it comes to movies: we have to do a movie where all the characters are going to talk with a french (from France) accent, 'cause it's gonna be international, it's gonna be huge, it's gonna represent what we are... Bulls*** Horloge Biologique speaks the same language I use with my friends, speaks the same language I use in bed with my girl. This detail gives so much more reality and credibility to the characters that you're connected with them from the start. Beside the language, there's the story. Boy, the script writers and director simply ask this question: what is it with men (from 25 to 35, i would say) in the 2000s? Where do we go? And mostly why the hell do we have to go somewhere in the first place, when staying right here feels just fine? A real funny movie with a dramatic (and quite unexpected but highly efficient) twist. Not a pretentious non credible piece of crap like Maman Last Call (using France french), but a real, real look on what is going on with us, males. go see it.
Thought provoking movie
It's good.. it's definitely worth seeing but not as interesting for me as Québec-Montréal. Probably because the subject matters in the later hit closer to what I am living as a single male in his late twenties. If you go see it, I highly recommend you go with your significant other and with a bunch of other people both men and women because it's bound to bring up some interesting conversations after the movie in the same way Québec-Montréal would. My only complaint about the movie is it's stereotypical representation of men's unfaithfulness toward their girlfriends. While it's true that men are statistically more likely to cheat on their girlfriend, the movie portrays all the main women characters in it as saints, which gives off the (false) impression that unfaithfulness in women doesn't happen often enough to be worth pointing out. I don't think it was the director's intention to imply that all men are a certain way (implicitly bad) and women another way (good). But since ALL the girlfriends in the movie are morally irreproachable and all the men are so prone to succumb to their baser, morally dubious, instincts I got out of the theater feeling that it's gender characterizations weren't quite fair and even a little sexist. Of course, it also doesn't help that all but one of the male characters are too blatantly moronic for me to identify with. I guess there are a lot of men like that but (sadly) the majority of them are not likely to be the ones to go see the movie.
A little disappointment
I was somewhat disappointed by this movie. Yes, the jokes are great and well delivered, yes the actors are great and convincing, and yes we can sometimes relate ourself to the character. But while the official description stated that this movie was about: "[...]three men who try to reach happiness and tranquility, harmony between the instinct and the reason." (from the official site) there is nowhere near the start of a struggle, they just give up to their (sexual) instincts. There is no twist in the story, the ending can be guessed as soon as the characters were presented, and while a great conclusion could have saved the movie, the one in the movie just feel rushed. At the end, it becomes more a movie about trust and lies than a movie about paternity. But, that movie has the courage of trying to talk about the relationship between the men and the paternity, and while I think they mostly failed, at least they have the merit of trying. And even if that movie is way too hopeless, it will make you think (and probably have a good discussion about it with your wife/girlfriend/husband/boyfriend). And, maybe, just maybe, my expectations were too high, because "Quebec-Montreal", the previous movie of the writers, was such a great movie! And I hope they will make soon another movie!
