If you have watched this original French version, there is absolutely no need for you to watch the Amercan version. lf it so happens that you watched the newer American version first, you must watch his original version, which is a film,…

A most beautiful, moving, spirit lifting movie. Based on a true story, these two men light up the screen with humor, angst and overwhelming love and compassion. Omar Sy's smile is electric and he is exquisite to watch in this role. …

Only the French could make a feel-good, corny movie with so much class (i.e. compare it to the Hollywood version, The Upside). Warm and extremely funny with stellar performances by the two leads, it deals directly with the issues of being…

A perfectly charming film about the most unlikely friendship one might imagine. This goes to show just how people are the same, no matter their background or circumstance.
Recommended.

Based on the real life friendship which developed between quadriplegic multi-millionaire Philippe and his male caregiver Abdell, Olivier Nakache and Éric Toledano’s bromance comedy is a winning mix of genuinely moving moments and Odd…

I watched the American version and learned through the reviews there was an earlier French version. Did some reversals due to sub titles. Interesting true story.

One of my all-time favourite movies. I always forget that I am reading subtitles. Based on a true story, the movie is inspiring about overcoming obstacles, friendship, possibilities, and transforming lives. Very funny, too....I laughed…

. This is based on a true story, with a little different twist. The actors did a superb job, Sy Omar in particular as the young immigrant caretaker burned up the screen. A paralyzed rich man who needs a caretaker picks a young immigrant…
I totally agree with the reviews! See this film in French with subtitles - the language adds to the beauty of the film. Omar Sy is mesmerizing on screen - you cannot keep your eyes off him. He and Francois Cluzet both hold your…
Although I don’t speak French fluently, I still found this movie to be an absolutely heartwarming and inspiring film. Through subtitles, I was able to clearly see what the producers were trying to showcase; the fact that differences, which…

Both an enjoyable romp as two cultures meet, clash, and find common areas, plus insight into how someone in a wheelchair chooses to pursue a real life--or not. This is based on a true story.
I watched this film with my Mom ( in her 80's) and my 4 sisters, and we all absolutely loved it. An affecting, authentic film about two men from completely different worlds developing a meaningful relationship with one another. Some…

A charming, funny, completely entertaining film. Knowing in advance that it's based on a true story is important, because the story might otherwise seem too improbable. Well-acted in addition.
Based on a true story, which makes this such an enjoyable uplifting movie to watch, the story and characters are superbly written; with humor and compassion all backed in one, a rare find in today's movies. A movie worth watching again.
