[movie] The Intouchables


Director: Eric Toledano et Olivier Nakache
Cast: Francois Cluzet, Omar Sy, Anne Le Ny
Language:  French


Overall
This is a movie based on true story. This combination looks interesting that caught my eyes actually, so I choose to watch this movie and thanks to Ms Soo XD It is about paralyzed millionaire forges an unlikely friendship with the Senegalese parolee he hired to take care of him. Two totally different worlds are going to mix themselves : Vivaldi and Earth Wind and Fire, fine letters and argot, suit and tracksuit... and create a unique friendship.

My review: The storyline is funny and simple. Although the story is simple yet i felt very warmth: their unique friendship is actually very touching and makes me felt so grateful for the people I met. I would also like to mention that every actor and actress in this movie are superb~ especially Mr. Omar, I like the way he portrayed his character as Paris's poor, suburban high-rise ghettoes with candor attitude that blend well into "his-another-kind" of society.  Even working with people that are not from the same atmosphere, he still be himself, the simple and kind-hearted one which make the movie so interesting. Be patient and try to feel the movie with your heart, and think about it. HAPPY WEEKEND~

Movies

Finally, got some movies from ee loe =) although they are movie some time ago, but still great movie. The list includes: 第36個故事,Despicable Me and 分手說愛你。


第36個故事


This is a movie i heard for so long, and finally got to watched it. FINALLY!!
This is a Taiwan movie. Well, the story is quite simple, just follow the flow, make some reflection onto yourself and you might get the picture of what the movie is trying to portrait.
In simple, it tells you stories. I like this movie probably because of the coffee, pastry and cakes, stories, and dreams. Just a very nice soothing movie for a weekend evening.

[what get me to eagerly MUST watch this movie is the 2nd actress lead Lin Zai Zai. very natural new coming actress >///<] "一個輕鬆卻富有故事性的電影"

Skip despicable me which it gave me a good laugh AGAIN.

Next, 分手說愛你
This is a Hong Kong movie. At first, someone posted that he cried so much after watching this movie, it triggered my curiosity. Normally, romance movie doesn't really appeal to me (i got problem o.0 ) but once i watched this movie, AHA!! something really made me watch this movie till the end. Yes, WITHOUT FAST FORWARD-ING   ^_^' which I would always do. :p

The way how this movie is presented really really unique. My very first time to watch a movie that is based on selca/sel-record; somehow I call it story-teller movies. A very touching movie and I salute to those who really love for love. Thumbs up to both the actor and actress~
