When you first start watching 'Foon', as I did, with English subtitles, you wonder whether the typist for the subtitle company was a monkey. However, after some research you realise that this hybrid language in this film is a wacky creation of the creative powers behind this film, Les Quiches. 'Franglish' (as the name suggests, a mix between French and English) is designed to either amuse, or disillusion the viewer (I haven't decided which) by interweaving French grammar rules, and pronunciation with English language phrases; for example: "Je am not ready" or "Listen to moi!". This weird, yet strangely addictive film is France's answer to the mass-produced "high school" films spawned by the US, and I for one applaud Les Quiches for making it.
Also, if you are going to watch 'Foon'; try not to guess the ending, as you'll be in for a visual treat! 8/10
