To be honest, I’m not sure why it’s called All-Time High. The original French title is Nouveaux riches, which already works? It’s a strange title translation.
With every chaotic fight scene, ridiculous stunts, and crazy scheme, All-Time High is a wild ride where two scammers lie to each other and fall in love. It’s fun to see these irresponsible people reap the consequences, and it’s fun to see the way Youssef and Stéphanie recognize that they’ve met their match, made all the more fun with the natural chemistry between Nassim Lyes and Zoé Marchal. That being said, the film’s irreverent humor depends a bit too much on stereotypes and gags, and can be a bit too specific for viewers outside of France.
It’s funny to see irresponsible people deal with the consequences of their actions, and All-Time High has crazy consequences. After a casino finds out that their scams, Youssef and Stéphanie get into fight scenes that’s downright chaotic and fun. These shenanigans are fun, in and of itself, but despite the leads’ charm, there’s not much to them other than being impulsive liars that can’t admit to being broke. It’s still a wild ride, and Nassim Lyes’ biting dynamic with Zoé Marchal is fun too, but the ride could have been more meaningful if we got to know their characters better.
