Intouchable film review

Rating: 10/10 (27 October 2014)

Intouchables is a french dramatic comedy, this film is one of the non-English movies which is the most seen in the world ! The very high score of "Intouchable" is truly deserved ! The plot is based on the true happened story of Philippe Pozzo di Borgo and Abdel Yasmin Sellou. In the film, the story is about Philippe, a rich quadriplegic man who tries to find a carer to help him in his daily life. He meets Driss, an black unemployed immigrant. Driss has no competence to take care of Philippe but nevertheless he accepts the job. While the context is very serious (immigrants, unemployment, handicap,...) the atmosphere is decontracted. Driss's tactless manners procures us a very good moment. You can't stop watching and you can't stop laughing ! Even if you've seen it a lot of times ! The main actors Omar Sy and François Cluzet plays their role perfectly ! You get attached on the characters and on the story ! I will not reveal too much but if you haven't seen it yet (and I doubt there are many) then I warmly recommend it to all of you !
