Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

vitorpiovezam Samba movie tells the story of an immigrant who has difficulty obtaining French nationality, his difficulties and passions. He began to live illegally in the country and fell in love with an assistant of the organization that helped him to conquer his stay in the country.A light story, with a Brazilian touch, with a improbable and interesting end. Good movie to watch, with an inclinous and questioning ending.

SnoopyStyle Samba Cissé (Omar Sy) is an undocumented migrant from Senegal living with his uncle in Paris. He's been in the country for ten years and is working in a kitchen. He's offered a contract and tries to apply for papers. He's quickly arrested and put in detention. Alice (Charlotte Gainsbourg) is a new social worker assigned to his case. He befriends Jonas who hasn't seen his fiancé Gracieuse for two years. He is ordered to leave France and allowed to walk out of the detention center. He befriends an Algerian named Wilson as he struggles to find work with the order hanging over his head.There are some funny moments of the social workers struggling to make sense of their clients. Omar Sy is a compelling presence. He has real charisma. This was released in 2014 but it feels like the news have overtaken the migrant issue. This movie is not all light and fun but it definitely does not take that issue to that level. Watching it only two years later, it feels very dated. This kind of comedy with touches of drama doesn't fit these dark times.

kosmasp And I'm not talking hot as in physically (though some may argue Omar is hot, which I reckon is not completely wrong), but as in right now, news worthy topic hot. Immigrants are one of the main "issues" in quite a few countries at the moment and it's almost comical to what degree some are arguing on this.This movie on the other hand is intentionally funny and it has good actors to back that story up. Even if you don't buy everything the characters are doing, you can easily empathize with them, if you're willing and open enough, to let those emotions in. The movie has a message in all the entertainment, which can be taken or read or completely ignored. That's up to the viewer. It is a very well made movie though and you can watch it, even without the current events being an obstacle to that form of "entertainment"

masterlee-sro1 Samba is a french romantic-comedy. I really like that this film sticks with its origins. What i like about french romance and comedy is, that it is not so cheesy and over the top like those Hollywood productions. Samba is a very personal film. The characters are every day people with everyday problems. I appreciated, that the movie picked up the migration problem in France. The actors Omar Sy and Charlotte Gainsbourg perform very well. The downside is that the film is quite strait forward. Not much suspense, but what do you expect from a romantic comedy. The soundtrack is from Ludovic Einaudi, who also did the soundtrack for "Les intouchables". And also like in "Les intouchables" the music makes a perfect match with the story and the images.For me this film is perfect romantic, funny, entertainment with a little bit of drama and social criticism.
