I've Had It

About This Movie

I've Had It is an intriguing slice of 70s comedy that weaves the chaotic journey of Cartier, a Quebecois with a pronounced French accent, navigating life in English Canada. The film offers an interesting look at cultural clashes, with a distinct humor that arises from language barriers and family dynamics. Cartier's hyperactive wife and their kids add layers of relatability and absurdity, creating a paced rhythm that oscillates between heartwarming and hilariously awkward. It’s not your run-of-the-mill comedy; there's a certain rawness to the characters and situations that feels quite authentic, especially for that era. The performances, though perhaps not high art, resonate with a captivating charm that keeps you engaged throughout.

I've Had It remains a relatively obscure title in the comedy genre, with few home media releases over the years, making it a bit of a treasure for collectors. Its unique blend of cultural humor and character-driven narrative has garnered a niche following, though finding a quality print can be a challenge. The film's rarity and distinctive approach to comedy make it an interesting piece for those looking to explore lesser-known Canadian cinema.
