Summoning up unnerving visions of an inevitable American remake starring Josh Duhamel or some similar Haircut, lukewarm French comedic trifle The Stroller Strategy, which is about a guy who bumbles his way into temporary guardianship of a baby and uses it to try to reconnect with his ex-girlfriend, indulges in hoary gender clichés in lieu of interesting characterizations. Directed by Clément Michel, the Paris-set film tracks along the same lines as Life As We Know It, What To Expect When You’re Expecting or the French source material for what in America later would become Three Men and a Baby (minus two guys, of course), but in a manner that hopelessly conflates amiability and ambiguity, making for a shrug-inducing experience.
