MICMACS

"A WHIZ-BANG COMEDY! Channels the spirit of Buster Keaton. Filled with elaborate sight gags and contraptions worthy of Rube Goldberg." - Stephen Holden, THE NEW YORK TIMES
"A MASTERPIECE! Jean-Pierre Jeunet is a master at visual storytelling - he weaves a magic carpet and takes you on a ride." - AIN'T IT COOL NEWS
"AWESOME! An exploded grandfather clock of a movie!" - Brian Miller, VILLAGE VOICE
"You can't help bursting into a grin!" - Sam Adams, SALON.COM
Is it better to live with a bullet lodged in your brain, even if it means you might drop dead at any time? Or would you rather have the bullet taken out and live the rest of your life as a vegetable? Are zebras white with black stripes or black with white stripes? Is scrap metal worth more than landmines? Can you get drunk by eating waffles? Can a woman fit inside a refrigerator? What's the human cannonball record? All these questions and more are answered in MICMACS, the latest dazzlingly cinematic outing from visionary French filmmaker Jean-Pierre Jeunet, director of DELICATESSEN, CITY OF LOST CHILDREN and AMELIE.
Actor/comedian Dany Boon (MY BEST FRIEND) leads a terrific cast including André Dussolier (TELL NO ONE), Dominique Pinon (ROMAN DE GARE) and the matchless Yolande Moreau (SERAPHINE) in a thrilling comedy about one man's oddball plan to exact revenge on two big weapons manufacturers, with a little help from his friends - an underground troop of misfits called The Micmacs, each with their own eccentric specialty: contortionist Elastic Girl, math whiz Calculator, and Buster, a seemingly indestructible human cannonball.
Fusing his utterly unique visual style with the slapstick sensibilities of vintage Buster Keaton, Jeunet once again creates a surreal comic strip world fueled by endlessly inventive comedy, edge-of-the-seat storytelling, hallucinatory sight gags and witty wordplay.
