FIGARO LIVE – Guest on the set of “Buzz TV”, the lawyer and columnist of “Grandes Gueules” on RMC is not kind to the director whose latest comedy is the subject of virulent criticism.


Charles Consigny is known for not having his tongue in his pocket.

The 33-year-old lawyer, a regular speaker in "Les Grandes Gueules" on RMC, proved it again on the set of "Buzz TV" this Thursday.

Invited to comment on the virulent criticism leveled against the last part of

Asterix and Obelix

directed by Guillaume Canet, the columnist does not mince his words.

When Guillaume Canet says that French cinema is waiting for the success of this film, it's quite surprising

According to

L'Informé

, Guillaume Canet received 500,000 euros for the script and the production and if ever the feature film exceeds 7 million admissions, he could pocket a bonus of one million euros.

"

In my opinion, it's unattainable

," said Charles Consigny.

I find that there is a certain indecency in these movie characters.

They are extremely well paid for what they do, partly on a public background

, ”points to the former columnist of Laurent Ruquier in “We are not lying”.

And to summarize: “

They made a film between friends which, obviously does not reach a quality objective at all.

And afterwards, they come and put a gun to our heads so that we go see the film and say good things about it.

Well no, sorry!

If it's bad, it's bad

,” he says again.
