La soupe aux choux (Louis und seine ausserirdischen Kohlköpfe - 1981)

final verdict for: "La soupe aux choux" (Louis und seine ausserirdischen Kohlköpfe - 1981): I just love this movie. De Funes at his best. Also this is one of the few silly but yet earnest comedies. 
I personally laughed as much as I had tears in my eyes. Also the supporting cast is really good, especially the hunchback, the music is great, just thinking about the theme-melody brings tears to my eye. Only downpoints are the poor choice of his wife brought back to life, the german dubbing and the german TV-Cut of the movie (from 91 minutes to 75). 
This movie is a childhood favourite of mine and I would give it a 10 out of 10 solely because of that. But I have to be objective and that's why I will have to deduct 2,5 for the downpoints mentioned above. 7,5 out of 10!
