8/10
Way better than your average french comedy! LIGHT spoiler included.

I've read the other comments prior to add this one, and I feel exactly the same as so many viewers : this film has more style, more energy, better acting, scenario, substance and FUN than it merely suggests. Not mentioning the music, Mickaël Youn style (ah, that roaring "fous ta cagoule!")

In a nutshell : Fatal Bazooka has been for years the best, baddest, most adulated French rapper ; he's got everything : super-trophy wife (that body!), a monster truck to drive in ordinary traffic, an enormous estate... He wears the largest gold chains, the weirdest attires... But his producer, feeling a need for change, decides abruptly to dump him for another, new, fresh star in the making, Chris Prolls (Fantastic Stéphane Rousseau)...After a period of utter demise (hilarious), fatal goes back to his roots, which are in Haute-Savoie, in the Alps...From there he'll have to prepare his revenge.

In fact everything, every scene in this film is funny in one way or another...When Mickaël Youn is in his element, and he clearly is in this film, he is wonderful.

And the music, as usual with him, ain't bad either, just by judging the hit that "fous ta cagoule" has been.

A very, very good comedy...At the level of the best ones from the States.
