October 17th, 2010 – Galaxy Cinema
Reviews:
Mike Scott, Times-Picayune: "Boon's lovely, embraceable performance is perfectly twinned with Jeunet's deft, artful direction."
Steve Persall, St. Petersburg Times: "Micmacs becomes a supremely odd and at times hilarious caper; The Sting according to Kurt Vonnegut."
Phillip Martin, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette: "As a filmmaker, Jeunet's prime virtues have to do with textural details, discursive forays into character, little grace notes that accrete into rueful human - and humane - comedy."
Josh Bell, Las Vegas Weekly: "Micmacs will keep you smiling almost all the way through".

Orphaned as a youngster when his soldier father was killed by a land mine, Bazil (Dany Boon) is hit by a stray bullet in a freak drive-by shooting incident. Emerging from hospital, he finds himself jobless and penniless, but good fortune appears in the form of an ex-con, Slammer, who introduces Bazil to a band of eccentric junkyard dealers with whom he ekes out a marginal existence. Charmed and overwhelmed by the hospitality he receives, Bazil helps turn the dump into a warm underground home full of magical tools and sculptures made from discarded junk.
