Micmacs. This one falls victim to excess. It’s a goofy, goofy French film with some laughs and lots of spy-movie-type fun. But if it were my choice, I’d cut a bunch of shots here and there. Not many entire scenes, mostly the small asides that make the already improbable plot a little manic and over-stuffed. Good intentions, though. Bonus points for camerawork, sets, and working The Big Sleep into the opening scenes.
