On the Other Side of the Tracks Audience Reviews

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
betty dalton Tight *ss white cop from Paris is forced to work together with a cheery black cop from the suburbs. Lots of racial jokes. Lots of situations in which the white privileged cop gets made fun of. Sort of a french version of "Lethal Weapon". Little less explosive. More refined. The story really doesnt matter, it is just an excuse to keep making jokes about the conflicts the two cops get into. Just as was the case with Lethal Weapon.Acting is great. Omar Sy is well known by now since he performed so excellently a man who cared for an invalid in "Untouchables". He has got great charm. And the white cop played by Laurent Lafitte is a famous comedy actor in France as well, who also has made the leap to some international movie succes. This movie however is about France's class struggle, between the poor people in the suburbs and the rich people in downtown Paris. All in good cheer though. Contineous jokes. Some funny chases. Just a great buddy cop movie, the French way...
kosmasp Not the best buddy movie I've seen (2 Guns comes to mind of late), but still a very enjoyable effort. Different people connecting sort of. And because this is french/European, it does not skip on the nudity. Something a US remake probably would do, especially considering what target audience they'd want to reach with it.One of our main actors is on his way to produce a lot of movies, especially since his very successful turn in "Intouchables" (english title). A very good movie, but also something that might come back to haunt him. A friend of mine didn't like his effort here and thinks he will be eaten and chewed off in a matter of months. Doing movies no one will want to see and delivering performances that are not good at all. That's a grim view, almost as grim as the bad guys that have to be fought in this movie. If you look upon it as a small little comedy, you might be able to enjoy yourself. If you try to compare it to "Intouchables", you won't!
pierrebarberis This movie is an undisclosed little jewel. Of course you have to understand the context: separated by the "periph", the Urban Circular highway around Paris, are on one side well-off bourgeois people and on the other side the unemployed, drug trafficking young sons-of-Muslim-immigrants. Quite an opposition of style , language and criteria in life. And it goes the same with the cops trying to tame these worlds....one if well dressed white polite etc and the other one turns out to be black and speaking the french suburban slang... I liked very much this movie, and all my friends did, because its MUCH more than a cop-movie. Of course you have to be open-minded, and have some notion of the context , which obviously is not the case of the first comment writer.
chEEpx An average Cop-Comedy (think Lethal Weapon in France with younger cops). Personally i will remember the Movie only for its sexism. Can in no way live up to the great Intouchables, also there is the same actor in both movies. IMDb should be glad that someone is ready to write a review of this movie and not bother about telling me that i should write ten lines. I mean seriously why ten lines, but maybe it. Is enough if a press backspace and don't have to fill all lines. Maybe if i was a native English speaker it wouldn't pose such a problem, but i didn't like the movie nor this rule. So to come to a conclusion: This movie is OK for television, but don't go in the movie and spend money on this. You surely would regret it.
