For those who read the journals of Nick Twisp the ending was disappointing. Funny regardless. The portrayal of Nick's alter ego Francois was spot on and brilliant; the casting director made a good decision by choosing Michael Cera for the role. I believe it would have been ideal to make a three part movie, like the book because the plot never really had a chance to develop. For those who have not read the book a hilarious cinematic adventure and would recommend to many.
