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.

3/5

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.

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

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.

5/10

As a dramatic comedy, it boasts a chemistry between François Cluzet and Omar Sy, but unfortunately, it relies too often on clichés to build its corny story about friendship, disability and racial prejudice. [Full review in Spanish]

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

3/5

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

A 93% score? I didn't even like it all that much. I wish it was in English.

The two main characters makes it worth the time, but I did get big 'meh'-vibes from it. It deals with a lot of big issues without ever getting deep with any of them.

It’s my comfort movie, I watched it a million times and I still can’t get bored of it. The acting is amazing and the music by Ludovico Einaudi matches the scenes perfectly. Beautiful, sad, happy, funny, warm, everything at the same time. I will probably watch it a million times more.
