leplatypus For me, Mickael is the first talented funny guy in France. In a way, he is the De Funès of the XIth century because i'm sure to laugh loudly at everything he does ! Sure his childish humor isn't clean or intellectual spoofs but at the end, it's bull-eye as I laugh and that's the essential ! Here, he makes fun of the showbiz and especially the rap industry ! In a way, as this world is really superficial and nearly illiterate (a paradox for writing lyrics), the ideas come easily. As a director, Mickael is also inspired as the movie pulses and doesn't give headaches ! He is also a brilliant casting director because the Canadian humorist is good as his nemesis and Furnaro is indeed a sublime girlfriend
romsson The movie can really be split in two parts.The first one is fast-paced, full of Youn-ish humor that mixes rap clips, exaggerating slang/ghetto talks, childish humor, parody of classic comedy moments and finally some genuine characters he has the secret to create. This part should have been the complete movie by extending the 45min into full length, and I would have given 10 stars, honestly. And this could have been made possible only by adding more music clips parodies and slowing down the pace sometimes.But for some reason Youn wanted to shoot himself in the foot.The second part is terrible to watch. The plot twist comes out of nowhere, vaguely related to one of Youn/Fatal song. Its slow pace, Swiss context (which is not Savoie, btw) does not match at all with the characters, even thought this was on purpose, are disappointing in so many ways I am not even describe to not re-think too much about it.One advice: stick to the first part.
robbie_jay1983 First of all let's make some things clear from the start: this movie looses 90% of it's charm if you're not French. Most of the fun comes from cultural references and playing with the meaning of words/names. Going even further, on the language level, one must master both English and French slang to fully appreciate the puns or the songs lyrics. Therefore I don't find it unusual that this great movie didn't received a better score, as it's targeted to a restrained audience.I've heard people out-there saying that this is just another Jackass movie. I'd say that that's far from being true and that kind of opinion is probably the result of watching this movie without the prerequisites I was mentioning in the above paragraph. As far as I'm concerned this film is unique and like Sasha Baron did with his characters (Bruno, Borat, Ali G) so did Michael Youn by putting a lot of effort into creating a character you enjoy watching and listening to.Every scene is carefully planned and every set is filled with details that will make you laugh out loud. You can watch it over and over again and still find something to laugh about.I'm going to stop here as I'm under the impression that I'm preaching to the choir and those of you reading this comment already dig this movie :) For those of you planning to rent or buy the DVD, please pass the checklist at point 1) and if everything checks then go ahead with your plan and you'll be pleased with your choice!
Dubskanker Knowing Mickael Youn style, FATAL is state of the art. In fact Fatal bazooka series where already funny, this movie is the missing cherry on the cake.Youn has a way to exaggerate everything in the best, most entertaining way and manages to make you laugh so much, its like seeing Britney spears trying jackass stunts and thus the fun is unstoppable. Being french, I know foreigners who didn't understand french but still laughed their ass off with the series. This film should be translated to all language so that more people can enjoy it. I recommend this movie 100.
