Honestly Human

Rating: 10/10 (29 October 2014)

Superbly acted and beautifully executed. This is a thoughtful and candid look at the lives of people with drastically different perks and problems in their worlds, and it offers the audience an opportunity to exist momentarily in both. There are moments of insight that make us re-think assumptions, offered by characters who are at once likable and flawed.
And while the film is overflowing with heart, it is also fun! Humor and a lighthearted look at reality keep the pace, with seamless transitions that surprise us into feeling something new.
I recommend The Intouchables to anyone who loves to learn about life, people, and themselves through stories.
