Chirurgie

About This Movie

So, 'Chirurgie' from 1989 is quite the oddball in the comedy genre. The pacing has this kind of erratic rhythm that might catch you off guard, but it works for the absurdity on display. There's a distinct blend of surreal humor mixed with some slapstick, which gives it a unique feel. The performances are... let's say, very committed, with actors diving into their roles in a way that feels almost exaggerated, but it matches the film’s tone. The practical effects, though maybe not the most polished, add a certain charm and authenticity that modern films sometimes lack. It's not something you see every day, and that makes it stand out in a sea of 80s comedies.
