    This actually really looks good. The original is a super classic in the French speaking world, so I would be prejudiced, but I have to say from what I see here, the movie is treated with respect and the casting is spot on. Martin Short even conveys Pierre Richard's touching fragility. I'll watch it (never thought I'd say that)

    The American one is underrated, Martin Short is hilarious. When its the same director and jts almost shot for shot, it almost feels more like a different cast doing a play , don't know why the critics had a problem with them remaking it in English.

      It isn't "shamelessly copied" it's a re-make. Film makers, critics and audiences are well aware of this fact, it's not like they re-made it thinking they were getting away with it and calling it an original. Because it was a French film, it would have struggled to reach a wider audience outside of France or Europe, this re-make is simply allowing more people to see it, more than likely because they thought it was worth doing so.

      Well, that's because the Director and Writer of both versions of "The (Three) Fugitives" it's the same, Francis Veber, that's why the two versions are too similar.

      @@jamesdawson2393 Sorry my comment is 1 year late: Why couldn't it reach a wider audience, I wonder. In Russia we watched the French movies dubbed and they were very popular, especially with the great actors like Pierre Richard and Gerard Depardieu. Why couldn't Americans like a foreign movie? At least this one was well done. But "A blond man in one black shoe" wasn't done justice when it was remade with young Tom Hanks playing Pierre Richard's character. So it wasnt noticed in the US. But the original was a big hit in Russia.

    Les remakes américains sont souvent trop adepte du "bigger is better" mais ici ça reste subtile, sûrement car c'est le même réalisateur.
