Micmacs Review

Fans of Amélie will surely be pleased to know that Micmacs keeps up with Jean-Paul Jeunet's captivating comic art style as it tells a story of a lonely misfit who finds a band of brothers who have experienced the struggles of being ousted from society. As with his other films, the world is slightly distorted and much unfolds like a dream. I watched this with a French friend and she mentioned that the English subtitles were a bit dodgy in quite a few areas, which may be just enough for some to skip this one, but if you're one to still appreciate a story filled with fun characters, amazing cinematography, a surprisingly refreshing change from your Hollywood action thriller, look no further than Micmacs. 8.1/10.
