Love at First Fight

Arnaud, facing an uncertain future and a dearth of choices in a small French coastal town, meets and falls for the apocalyptic-minded Madeleine, who joins an army boot camp to learn military and survival skills to prepare for the upcoming environmental collapse. Intrigued and excited by Madeleine’s wild ideas, Arnaud signs up for the boot camp himself. They soon realize that the boot camp is harder than they’d imagined, but the experience nonetheless cements them together as the couple continues to explore their young love.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

One more "Boy Meets Girl" story? Just another Rom-Com? Not really. First things first, you will never prevent boys from meeting girls and the reverse, so there will always be love stories and thank heaven for them when they manage to rise above the clichés and the cheesiness too many of them bathe in. A defect mercifully avoided by this particular affair of the heart. A mere look at the title ("Les Combattants" - literally "The Fighters" -) is an obvious guarantee that you will be spared the stale old exasperating Cha Ba Da Ba Da tale. Actually, neither the characters nor the situation are conventional or predictable. Take our young Romeo for example: Arnaud is a young carpenter who does not show any real passion for his trade. Docile, mild-mannered and easy-going, he takes life as it comes; in other words he still has to find himself. For her part Madeleine, the girl he meets, has little in common with the frail, sensitive Juliet. Three adjectives best qualify her: brusque, burly and nihilistic. Completely out of this world, the horsey lady has an obsession: mastering survival skills in order to... get through the end of the world! As you can see, not the standard Rom-Com, all the more as the stereotypical gender roles are reversed: Miss Headstrong is the dominant one while Mr. Least Line of Resistance yields and follows... at least for a time.For all the rhetoric, though, this is a love story. Even if it looks just the opposite. Even if it is set in a more and more unusual context as the minutes pass. And it is precisely the odd settings and the crazy story developments that prevent boredom. Unique in its kind "Les combattants' has romance bloom... within the framework of a training session for wannabee paratroopers and, a little later, in the middle of a survival experience in the grip of untamed nature!Nothing wishy-washy to fear as you can see. On the contrary in the end you will have been told the touchingly serious story of two creatures who attract each other but have to struggle to find who they really are and to make out how they can relate to each other satisfyingly. Another quality of Thomas Cailley and Claude Le Pape's screenplay, lies in the fact the two characters, a bit caricatural at the beginning, evolve in the course of the action and gain in depth. The last added value is the film's interesting examination of what it is like to be young in today's France, a country once prosperous and proud of itself which now seems to have lost its bearings. Both Madeleine and Arnaud, each in their manner, are disoriented and do not know where they are going. A statement that, by extension, can be applied to a big share of French youth and brings the movie a rich sociological touch.Always where you least expect him, Thomas Cailley succeeds in combining several genres (documentary, comedy, romance, psychological study, army movie, disaster movie) without ever sinking into confusion. So much so that "Les combattants" appears as a unique example of its kind. Well-served by its actors (delusively bland Kevin Azaïs and always under pressure Adèle Haenel), it will surprise and amuse you while giving you - Thank God in a casual way - food for thought.

A movie that the more frames I see the more I want it to end. I really do not know what he wants to tell me. I think that neither the actors nor the director know where they want to go. The main actor does not tell me anything and she falls pretty bad and the worst thing is that does not improve the situation over time, I can not empathize with them, so it is difficult that I like the movie. If what the director wanted was that the actors were not attractive, if he succeeded.There comes a time that also does not advance the story until it finally ends, the best of the film, is over.It has no direction, no tone, no planning, no where to go. The photograph, it seems that they were not very interested in this department either.

I don't even know how much this film falls under the "rom-com" category, although it is classified as one. There are comic elements as much as in real life, so nothing that emphasized or exaggerated. The guy's crush on the girl is evident pretty soon, because he takes every chance he gets to be in her company. The girl on the other hand is cold towards him and understandably so, since they met on bad terms (hence the English translation of the title, love at first fight). The girl is a cold person in general, at least until you get to know her better. I don't think it was actually love at first fight. But I do think they were interested in one another when the fight was sprung onto them. It was both exciting and humiliating (mostly for the guy). I think he was preoccupied with thoughts of the girl because it was a weird and uncommon experience for him. She intrigued him. And so when the girl's parents hired the guy to build them a shed next to their house, it was an irresistible opportunity to observe the 'eccentric' girl and get closer to her. Honestly, the girl had issues with anger management, she felt self-entitled and was downright mean sometimes. Stubborn, also. I like that she 'took no sh*t' and it was admirable how persistent she was in learning survival. She was preparing herself in case of a world crisis. And it's not even 'in case' anymore. It's just a matter of when and what will come first, and will it catch us in our lifetime. Although the boot camp was a joke in opposition to what she came for, the concept of something like a survival course attracted me. The movie also shows us how dangerous living alone can be, and how hard "passing the time" can be, unless you're with someone you're attracted to :) There was only one intimate scene and one sudden kiss some time before it. They never became a giggly and gooey couple, it's not in their nature. I think that the guy is tougher than he seems and the girl is 'softer' than she seems. They just take a different approach towards things. The guy is more easy going and passionate, he has his head in the clouds and is easily influenced. He's a nice guy. The girl keeps to herself and is more goal-orientated, and in doing so is passive in other aspects of life. She has a 'dont mess with me' aura to her and she aspires to be tough. In my opinion, they complement each other well. They bring out the stuff that's less noticeable in one another. They went through some phases of negligence and got burned. Literally. But in the end, there's no denying they both had a lot of fun and learned some good lessons. French films hardly ever disappoint. Something worth noting is that this film has an original soundtrack and it's pretty cool. I'd recommend this movie if you're looking for something 'light'. As in, not so extreme that you'll cry your eyes out, or be filled with hate and fear, and not so sappy that it kills brain cells. 10 - 3 because the acting wasn't that good. That's usually how it is with two people who like each other. It's mostly them goggling at one another. I didn't feel that much passion between them. The culmination of course was their scene of intimacy. I have to admit it got my heart beating faster and some other things haha I'm sorry for constantly referring to them as 'the guy' and 'the girl', I forgot their names and didn't think it would be that significant. That's that.

I much enjoyed this comedy drama movie. Mostly because of the convincing characters, especially the gal with men manners but so glamorous from a certain point of view. I loved her character. A Young woman in search of herself. Some exquisite sequences when the Young folks are voluntarily drafted. A pretty good try as a first long time feature for the Young director.Made on locations in the South of France, at least I guess. A movie that doesn't tire you at all. No length. You have the feeling that it only lasts one hour.A story that makes you think about the meaning of life, as the characters do for themselves. A film that also gives you a good feeling, a magic one towards nature. That's the way I felt this feature. But maybe I am wrong, maybe this was not the true message.
