Uncontrolable laughs (Dvd)

My motivation to this movie runs from that I am a big fan of the lead actor: Michael Youn. From his hit morning show, to his songs, to his play and movies, I like his energy, his all-around humor, sensitiveness & honesty.

· With "Around the World in 80 Days", it was a 2 minutes character (but as Swartzeneger or De France, not even credited in the "main details" of the IMDb page!) · With "11 commandements", his spirit was kept but it wasn't really a movie.

Here, it has a real script, so the danger was that it could have killed his spirit…

The result: It's dumb ; it's crazy ; the script doesn't make sense… But, what's the hell ! It's funny, edited with energy, and the talented cast is having fun… Why asking for more with a comedy ??

I choose the DVD collector so I'm lucky to have access to a lot of bonuses. The making-of, the gag-reel, add supplementary laughs: the scene of the "dogs trophy" deserves to be a "classic". There seems to have a lot of scenes cut, so I hope to an extended version. The special "dubbed" editing is interesting because it is a good film-making lesson: never trust a frame: the eyes can always be deceived!

In conclusion, Michael Youn is an real actor & his skills aren't limited to his nakedness !
