The Intouchables (2011)

Such a frustrating disappointment

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

A masterpiece. INTOUCHABLES portrays an ever lasting friendship between two men, deprived from the most precious things in life; health and family. It is outstanding on all levels. The script is written beautifully, and it flows very well. It's funny, touching and inspirational. Despite its hard subject, it succeeded in making a good balance between emotional and comic timing. The two leads' performance is spontaneous especially Omar Sy who is really humorous depending not on grabing jokes, but casual comic situations to draw a smile on your face. The only reason I didn't give it 10/10 because there are some jokes, or say scenes that dragged a little bit. I find that it would have been better if those scenes were shorter as comedy needs to be impulsive. Far from this point, I highly recommend this true-story based movie for its beautiful direction, cast and sweet piano background score.

I'm not the type that watches French movies, but we had to watch this movie in my class French and it was just stunning! Never seen a movie with a beautiful plot like this. A really great movie.

This movie is so darn re-watchable.True, it's not the most original story out there, but why should it be? The reason this movie is so good, is because it takes a story that we all know and love, and makes it so down to earth and relatable, and so heartfelt and true to watch for the viewers.The acting is remarkable. The minute I started watching this movie for the first time, I was already immersed and fully convinced that I was indeed watching the true story unfold, with the real people involved's characters at heart.The movie is about friendship and overcoming differences and hardships, but told in a very uplifting and heartwarming way. This movie makes you both laugh and cry, but in a good way, it's a real feelgood movie.As an addition, I completely forgot about the different language after 5 minutes in to the movie, as I was so immersed.

'Untouchable (2011)' is a feel-good, life-affirming picture that does its job and does it well, delivering on its early promise of a touching central relationship that really does warm the heart. I can honestly say that I had a genuine smile on my face for most of the run-time, thanks mainly to Omar Sy's endearing and energetic performance. It also helps that the picture is legitimately funny and has a realistic edge that prevents it from slipping too far into sentimentality. Even though, at its core, the story is bare-bones and familiar, there's enough fun to be had that the fairly basic concept can be overlooked and the pure joy of two friends laughing together, despite their many differences, can really shine through. 7/10
