The Tuche Family (Les Tuche) is a French comedy film released in 2011. It is directed by Olivier Baroux and stars Jean-Paul Rouve, Isabelle Nanty, and Claire Nadeau in the lead roles. The movie follows the Tuche family, who live in Bouzolles, a small town in the French countryside. They are a happy-go-lucky family who have always lived a simple life. The head of the family, Jeff Tuche (Jean-Paul Rouve), is a truck driver who dreams of winning the lottery and living a lavish life with his family. His wife, Cathy (Isabelle Nanty), is a devoted mother who takes care of their three children, who are all very different from each other.

Jeff's dreams of hitting the jackpot come true when he wins 100 million Euros in the lottery. The Tuche family then decides to move to Monaco and live like millionaires. They have a tough time adjusting to the high society lifestyle, but with the help of Amandine (Claire Nadeau), a businesswoman who takes them under her wing, they are able to fit in.

The Tuches' journey to Monaco is filled with humorous situations that attract the attention of the media. They become national celebrities, with people flocking to catch a glimpse of the family that won the lottery. However, the Tuche family faces several challenges in their new life. They struggle to fit in with the snobbish and wealthy elite of Monaco, who look down on them for their lack of sophistication.

The film's humor relies heavily on the contrast between the Tuche family's simple and down-to-earth lifestyle and the extravagant lifestyle of the monarchy in Monaco. The movie is also filled with funny situations that arise from the Tuche family's lack of sophistication, such as when they attend a royal family function dressed in their usual casual attire.

Jean-Paul Rouve, who plays Jeff Tuche, delivers a brilliant performance as the head of the family. He portrays Jeff as a caring father who only wants the best for his family. Isabelle Nanty also shines in her role as Cathy Tuche. Her performance perfectly captures the essence of a typical mother who will do anything to protect her family.

Overall, The Tuche Family (Les Tuche) is an entertaining and heartwarming film that explores the meaning of family and the importance of staying true to oneself. The film's humor and well-developed characters make it an enjoyable watch for anyone who loves a good comedy.

The Tuche Family is a 2011 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 33 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.4.
