Sink or Swim (Le Grand Bain)
A group of 40-something guys form a first men's synchronised swimming team in this French midlife crisis ensemble comedy. Braving the skepticism and ridicule of onlookers, and trained by a fallen champion trying to pull herself together, the group set out on an unlikely adventure.

Reviews & comments
Variety
pressAs harmless as it is silly, but dampened by idle gags, empty characterisation and an inordinate two-hour runtime.
Screen Daily
pressA surefooted crowdpleaser with enough warmth and the committed talents of a stellar ensemble cast to fend off any sense of predictability.
Hollywood Reporter
pressA sluggish two hours that delivers only in a triumphant final act that's as improbable as it is inevitable.
