MICMACS (14A)
MICMACS
(Jean-Pierre Jeunet, France 2009) Turning the volume of his slapstick surreality down from 11 to 10, Gallic auteur Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amelie) hits the sweet spot with Micmacs. The wacky tale of a brain-injured videostore clerk who brings down a pair of Parisian arms dealers with the help of some highly creative collectors of second-hand goods, Micmacs welds Jeunet's hyperactive imagination to the simpler structures of silent comedy and 40s-era studio capers, resulting in the director's most accessible work yet. The plot is set swiftly in motion by a stray bullet that lands in the head of clock-punching Parisian Bazil (Dany Boon) during his umpteenth screening of Howard Hawks' The Big Sleep.”—Rob Nelson, Variety. In French with subtitles. 105 min. (14A) July 23-27
