Robert Paulson’s review:
Other movies can't touch this.
I was surprised at how much I loved this film. Not only is The Intouchables heartfelt and uplifting, but it's also legitimately hilarious in almost every scene!
The cast -- especially Omar Sy -- deserve major kudos for their performances.
I don't imagine the coming American remake will have an easy time recreating the wonderful chemistry the two leads have here.
An incredible, joyous film from start to finish. The only downside (besides the well-intentioned racism, that is)? My cheeks still hurt from smiling so much.
