vitorpiovezam Samba movie tells the story of an immigrant who has difficulty obtaining French nationality, his difficulties and passions. He began to live illegally in the country and fell in love with an assistant of the organization that helped him to conquer his stay in the country.A light story, with a Brazilian touch, with a improbable and interesting end. Good movie to watch, with an inclinous and questioning ending.

mmunier Not sure about the spoiler but just in case! Having a good friend in Australia who likes French and other nationalities movies, I the French guy was invited once more to see this one. Samba! I was not in a particularly good mood but this stopped quickly as the film started. I also immediately seem to recognise that guy, from "that" movie and I thank IMDb to remind me it was the Untouchables that gave me also much pleasure. (Count your blessings you up there who have a good memory and much knowledge about this industry, I go to see movie in the hope to get an interesting time!) I did get a good and interesting time despite some not so flattering comments here. The two main characters were a lot of fun and weren't alone in this area. I like the light dealing with important issues like illegal immigration but also feelings and love. Where I am, immigration is made a big issue, where paranoia is competing with reality, but also of course is used also as a political football. But as usual often one's perception depends on what side of the fence one lives. The film gives glimpses of this situation. I seems to have caught more comedy than reviews suggest and I'm not complaining! It takes all kind and all tastes, but perfect or not it worked for me, I'd be surprised if it wouldn't for you.

eliane-tuyikeze "Samba" is a french comedy with a great history about the immigrants. I like this film. I've seen this film recently and I've been surprised because at first i thought it was just a stereotype movie about immigrants. Actually, I don't like french films but this one was a good one, there are really good characters. Obviously my favorite actor was the leading actor, Samba ( Omar Sy ), he plays very well. What i found as a great idea is that we can laugh even if it's a sad story with a happy ending. The only problem I had is that I already knew what was going to happen at the end of the film. I really recommend this film if you like laughing and watching touching film.

Audrey Chatelain Nice little movie with feelings and tenderness... No ambition or claim with Samba but the desire to speak to the heart of the spectators. Well done, a pleasant movie but what we forget rather fast.I think that the directors did not want to make a movie too hard here. Samba is almost favored in this movie for somebody who has no valid identity papers.I expected in better with these excellent actors but this love story is easy to dread and there are very few suspenses few new developments but being romantic, I cannot criticize a movie which speaks about love and in a clean and healthy way. I am sorry about my poor English but I hope to have been understandable for the majority of the readers on IMDb.I recommend this movie for all the romantics.
