- 菲利普(凯德·麦拉德 Kad Merad 饰)在法国南部普罗旺斯的一家邮局任职了十多年,一成不变的生活和闷闷不乐的妻子朱莉(Zoé Félix 饰)令他感到压抑。为了讨妻子欢心,菲利普装扮成残疾人申请升职到南部的黄金海岸地区,却不料弄巧成拙被调派到了极北的小城贝尔格(Bergues)担任局长。在南方人眼里,那里气候寒冷恶劣,人民粗俗不堪,说话还带着难懂的Ch'ti口音,是堪比地狱的地方。 心灰意冷的菲利普辞别家人,忐忑不安的独自赴任。然而出乎意料的是,他发现自己的新下属们和当地的居民都很热情好客,自己也很快与邮递员安东尼(丹尼·伯恩 Dany Boon 饰)交上了朋友。菲利普逐渐爱上了这处淳朴简单的小城,但当他试图说服朱莉一同来到北方生活,却遭到了妻子的质疑…… 本片曾获2008年欧洲电影奖及2009年法国恺撒奖提名。
- 前东德最好的一部超现实主义幻想剧! this is one of the most amazing looking,surreal films of all time and i only recently acquired it on video.it was just as good after fond childhood memories of it.highly recommended,with great special effects,and stunning set design,and vivid colour and cinematography.buy with confidence! This is as you remember watching it as a child. Lifelike, overtly coloured and full of magical splendor, terrifying nasties and surreal characters. In short, do not shy away from this opportunity to show a "Christmas Special" to your children in favour of the usual fare from Disney and co. Rather, pop a fresh batch of pop corn, get first dibs on the comfy chair and opt for what was arguably one of the highlights of East German children's programming.
- 本剧是NBC颇具震撼力的电视迷你短剧《10.5》(地动天惊)的续集和终结篇。在上一集中,强烈的地壳运动所引发的10.5级恐怖地震毁灭了美国西海岸,改变了地核结构,直接威胁到到北美甚至整个西半球,造成了一系列连锁灾害:夏威夷被海啸吞没,胡佛被摧毁,洛杉矶沉没……《10.5 Apocalypse》(毁灭之日)的视觉效果达到了同类迷你剧中的高水准。 为了拯救更多的生命、挽救国家,Hollister总统(扮演者:艾美奖和金球奖双料明星Beau Bridges,SG-1 第九季中可爱的将军)决定孤注一掷。他找来全国最顶级也是最有争议的地震学家Samantha Hill博士(扮演者:艾美奖得主Kim Delaney)和她的上司兼前男友Jordan Fisher博士(扮演者:David Cubitt),评估最近一次地震所带来的冲击。Hill绞尽脑汁,没办法弄明白为什么会有持续不断的地震和火山爆发,但她意外发现了也是地震学家的父亲(扮演者:Frank Langella)多年前作出的一个难以置信的假设。如果这个假设正确,将会有更大的灾难到来,北美大陆也将彻底被改变:将被分割成两块独立的大陆。
- This movie was the most illogical and stupid movie EVER made. If the FBI would have been called in once it was officially a kidnapping, the movie would have been over in 20 minutes and all of the people involved would have been in jail. Instead, the people searching for the kidnapped kid, bumble their way through two hours of absolutely unpredictable stupidity.
