The Perfectly Composed 'Micmacs'

Jean-Pierre Jeunet, most widely known to Pop America as the Director of Amelie, continues to elate audiences with his comical appeal on the dark-side of life... Lighting up the screen with intricate props that appeal to the viewer as much as the jovial bunch cast in the unusually delightful story of Micmacs.

The tale moves quickly as it is charming, bringing the audience smoothly up to speed to a somewhat reserved individual whose soon to be shot-gunned fate brings him to the likes of a contortionist, an ex-con, and a slew of charming vagabonds. Creating ultimately this fantastically wheeled story of the humor in revenge & the beauty in what we disregard.

The charismatic energy of the films overall creation - plot/picture/& thought - makes it perfect for the big screen, seeing every detail in this spectacularly bizarre spectacle... Leaving you not only looking forward to a repeat to the theater, but smiling a bit more as you walk out the door.

...I'd say more, but I really believe you should just go see it for yourself - it's more fun that way!
