The Brice Man (2005)

Absolutely Brilliant!

A Masterpiece!

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Blistering performances.

BRICE DE RICE!!!!11!11!11!1!WOW DIS MOVIE IS GREAT OR SUTINBut really, I quite enjoyed the inner psychology of the film. There were many underlying themes of denial, class warfare, and nature. I can completely relate to Brice's wild nature. When I was young, my brother and I split gasoline in the shape on a pentagon on one of my friend's yards. And then we set it on fire. It was something I really feel Brice would do.I HIGHLY recommend this movie to anyone who can't find their way in life. This movie is for you. Forget the bad reviews. Those were the reviews of people who are either 1: rich or 2: ignorant.I love Jean Dujardin. It was a mistake for him to do The Artist. His voice needs to be heard. "My pleasure?" Is that really all he can say in a silent film?BRICE DE RICE FOREVER.

This movie was awful. I mean I thought since it was a foreign film it would be good. I guess we can't judge before we know. Seriously, what was with those annoying songs? Especially that one where it went give me the tax. Come on, get some better lyrics. I couldn't stand his personality. It was way to cocky and superficial. Well, I didn't enjoy that movie, very disappointed by its soundtrack. Oh, and another thing what was with that odd relationship with that guy with the feet and the girl with the ears. I just thought this movies was really ridiculous for my taste. It wasn't that funny in my opinion. Just really, really, annoying. People should really learn when to stop in movies. Sometimes they just take it way to far, where there is a bridge of comedy and way to far where it just hits the point of stupidity and annoyance.

The beginning of BRICE DE NICE is very funny, colorful and lively. It's very ridiculous but that's what makes it so funny. But once the "story" kicks in (father looses his money, Brice needs to find a job and live in the real world), the film falls apart and never recovers. There are a few interesting bits here and there but 80% of the film is almost unwatchable. It's so forced, trite and unfunny that it makes me wonder who created the first 20%.The concept of BRICE DE NICE is not that different than one of those Saturday Night Live sketches and making a whole movie out of this wacky character was probably overkill when a short film or TV episode would have been sufficient.I give the beginning an 8 but the rest of the movie a 1...cassé!

The well-known, very popular jokes of the character "Brice de Nice", a young, lost youth, never took much more than a couple of minutes to make one laugh, and never keeping the tension for much longer a time. If you sum up the five or six jokes, that leaves you with, say, fifteen minutes of fun. The pity is that the movie takes much longer! I just hope that it taught a lesson to other stand-up comedians who, in the heat of success, plan to make a movie about their favorite character. Not every joke is matter enough for an hour's time. It's not even good for the comedian's career, if he's constantly reminded of the bad movie he did a couple of years ago. If there's anything but money to justify this movie, tell me. Another evening lost in the cinema, watching a disappointing french comedy!
