A lot of fun!

Rating: 8/10 (3 March 2013)

I don't know about you, but a nearly 2 hour French film about a former thief and a quadriplegic doesn't seem like it would be that funny. Surprisingly, it is! Omar Sy and Francois Cluzet have fantastic chemistry and make a great duo that you actually care about. The soundtrack is solid with dance-able tunes from Earth, Wind and Fire (one of Driss' favorite bands) as well as classical music from Bach and Mozart (Philippe's preference). If you prefer character driven pictures over special effects extravaganzas, you'll want to check out "The Intouchables".
CinemaJudgementDay review was 3.5 of 4, or roughly an 8.5 (if I could) out of 10 here.
