Jules & Julien is an intriguing blend of comedy and absurdity set against the backdrop of a pandemic. The film dives into the chaotic minds of two friends with a harebrained scheme to rob a pawnshop. The atmosphere oscillates between tension and humor, reflecting the anxieties of the COVID era. What stands out is the way they navigate health measures while plotting their heist—it's almost a character in itself. Performances are raw, with a certain charm that keeps you engaged, especially when Jules' frustrations lead to bizarre threats involving his phone. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it adds to the unpredictability of their attempts. There's something refreshingly distinct about its take on friendship and desperation in strange times.
