I learned that Gustave Eiffel was good at creating the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty and soap operas. Rather than exploring the man's genius and accomplishments, the film fills its runtime with tawdry erections which are far less stable and totally insignificant. This is a biopic where they decided to create a more boring life rather than show his certainly more fascinating real one. But good thing his girlfriend's name didn't start with a 'Z'! (You had to be there.)

This had so much potential and they ruined it. The huge majority of the movie is about a love story and not the creation of the Eiffel Tower.

The story should have focused on that.

It's surprising the interest to create suspense for a story that has no mystery, a wrong approach that makes this biopic a useless effort.

Romain Duris turns in a creditable enough performance but otherwise this is a rather lacklustre mix of romance and engineering that veers way too much to the former than the latter. The narrative tries to run the twin threads of his younger years - where he builds a bridge and falls in love with "Ad More
