Critics Consensus

It handles its potentially prickly subject matter with kid gloves, but Intouchables gets by thanks to its strong cast and some remarkably sensitive direction.

David Stratton

At the Movies (Australia)

The problem is that if, while you're having a good time with these characters, you start to think about the wider implications of the film, you might find yourself somewhat less enthralled.

Rated: 3/5

Irish Times

It's not subtle. It's not innovative. But it guarantees good humour, pranks, japes and welling-up for two hours.

Rated: 4/5

Derek Malcolm

London Evening Standard

There is something so fatuous about the whole farrago that one will never again believe the old saw that the French are more cultured than the Brits and couldn't possibly be taken for this sort of gooey ride.

Rated: 2/5

Keith & the Movies

It’s an example of smart and capable filmmaking that can make you laugh as well as tug at your heartstrings.

Age of the Geek

The French film is superior to the Hollywood remake although the problem of Orientalism is more prominent.

Rated: 3/5

The movie is clearly intended to counteract the racist and anti-immigrant policies increasingly being promoted by the French ruling elite and ultra-right political elements in particular.

Fuck just a very good emotional but also feel good movie. Was funnier than most comedies while also being more compelling than so many movies. Too good

La rencontre entre Driss et Philippe nous donne droit à une relation autant touchante qu'inattendue. Cette comédie dramatique réussie a agilement aborder des sujets pointus tout en gardant une plaisante légèreté. Par ses personnages, sa réalisation et sa trame sonore, ce film est pour moi un chef-d’œuvre français à ne pas manquer.

The story revolves around the unlikely friendship between Philippe, a wealthy quadriplegic aristocrat, and Driss, a young man from the streets with a troubled past. As Philippe's caregiver, Driss brings a breath of fresh air into Philippe's rigidly structured life, challenging his preconceptions and pushing him to embrace life to the fullest.

Ð¡Ð°ÑÐ° Ð

"1+1" (2011) - це драматична комедія, яка змішує в собі елементи гумору і вражаючої емоційної сили. Режисером фільму є Олів'є Накаш і Ерік Толедано. Історія фільму базується на реальних подіях і розповідає про незвичайне дружбу між багатим аристократом, паралізованим після нещасного випадку, і молодим афроамериканським чоловіком, який стає його опікуном. Фільм не лише розкриває проблеми фізичної неповносправності, а й підкреслює важливість емоційного і соціального підтримки у важкі моменти. Він пропонує глядачам глибокі роздуми про значення життя, дружби і прийняття. Акторська гра Франсуа Клюзе і Омара Сі здивує вас своєю вірогідністю та емоційною виразністю. Захопливий сценарій, чудова режисура і чутлива музика допомагають створити неповторну атмосферу фільму. "1+1" - це кінематографічний шедевр, який не залишить байдужим жодного глядача. @Odysey#Grimace
