Half brothers Joel and Regis land in jeopardy when they emancipate their inheritance, and get sent back in time to the slave period by a mysterious woman where they must face the challenges together.
Go back about 600 years ago and blacks would still have majority control of the world, whites only just came in to power within the past few hundred years, the Moors are who europeans copied, African’s are who caucasian’s as a Whole copied, minus the psychopathic behavior.
Where Black People Are Still Slave?? I guess the author doesn't know what is going on in africa and in the middle east right now...dude black people are still slaves to many arab muslims and to rich black men in africa. And stop making movies only about american slavery as if they were the only ones. America took only a handful , most black slaves went to muslim countries ( like today ) and many into south america. And the slaves were sold by BLACK KINGS .
@@piggy3595 How is that racist? They’re just saying they’re not ashamed of their roots and where they come from, and are proud to be black and remain in their ancestral homeland
Imagine sending two French urban dudes to the age of slavery 😂 when he thought the hunters were la BAC (cops in civilian uniform) it just cracked me up already as the situation was getting serious. That movie honestly is S tier in terms of pulling of risky comedy
This channel is like a cheat code, I could watch movies in the lesser time and for free lol, the narration was so accurate and hilarious Edit: woww thanks for the likes guys and gals
I am 100% finding where this is streaming and watching it, looks both hilarious and well written. I expected the brothers to be trapped in the past, having become better people and ensuring their family's future by taking their places. Nice happy ending!
They are not sent in 1850 but in 1780, 9 years before the French revolution happens and when the French would abolish slave trade. Besides that your video is a really nice concept. Thanks for sharing this movie to the English audience.
Yes. The freedom to bust your butt to try to make it into the minority of slots where you can get above the rising cost of living, and accrue wealth at an exponential rate. Perhaps if that luck is not on your side, you can settle for working for the 10% of the masters lucky enough to achieve this or the 90% of them that were born into it. The freedom to be told where to be, what to wear, what to do, how to do it. The freedom to leave that job and go work for another that offers benefits and other marginal augmentations that decorate the subordinate position you are in again. And no matter what you choose, you are still beholden to money, the few elite with true power, fear of losing it all. Yes, freedom is something that we have been lied to about for centuries. Through tribal assaults and subsequent enslavement, then Feudalist rule by kings who self proclaimed their appointment by god to the throne, to capitalism, where the winners take all. All of them claimed there was a freedom present despite the enforced rule. All of these masters claimed we were ungrateful for the new allowances we are now afforded compared to the past. Freedom costs more than just blood sweat and tears. It costs our diligence, self education, and demand that we be an informed and prepared population, that can vote on our future in every reasonable aspect including work. I hope one day we do this, but I have my doubts.
@@deepinmind83freedom doesn't mean being able to afford things. You are allowed to be broke and homeless and a huge amount of people live happy lives never having money or a home of their own. Depends how much you want
Great movie. Thomas Ngijol and Frabrice Eboué (the two leads, and directors of the movie) also made a second movie that was equally hilarious called "Le crocodile du Botswanga". Easily some of the best french comedy of the last decade.
Any movie these two make is already a sold. You just know what you getting and being Central African sole of their stuff hits home 😂 crocodile du botswanga is one 😂 you think they went into the extremes representing an African dictator but nah they dulled it down some of the things these mfs pull you wouldn’t believe
I’ve never seen this movie but somehow got recommended this recap while I was high, so I watched. But this recap is hilarious 😂 I need to watch it now with the subtitles on
French movie titled Case Depart (2011)? Cool. Added to my list. Movie ending was quite funny! Really entertaining movie recap. YOU'RE AWESOME! BEST REGARDS!
Similar vibe watch (qu’est-ce qu’on a fait au bon dieu) little pitch very conservative parents have 4 daughters and essentially they the typical parents who want white French Christian in-laws but one married a Muslim the other a Jew and the other a Chinese dude 😂 so movie starts all hopes are on the last baby girl who tells her parents she is dating a Christian man visibly reassuring them but doesn’t tell them he’s black 😂 I won’t spoil’ anything more that’s just how it starts but it’s hilarious and quite wholesome too actually
@@nerd888 sometimes if you go back in time to when there is a post office, you can write a letter to be delivered to your boss in the future to call out sick for a few weeks, but usually there isn't, or slaves aren't allowed in the post office or something.
@@toneeyyhh you are so wrong that it hurts my eyes to read. Suriname is the only country in the Americas where maroons still reside to this day in 6 distinct tribal communities with a tribal governance structure and some speaking their own language. There are roughly 15,000 descendants of Jamaican maroons globally. There are 120,000 maroon descendants in Suriname *alone* with an equally large diaspora outside of Suriname mainly in French Guyana, France and the Netherlands. This is not a competition...both Suriname and Jamaican maroons have an extra-ordinary history...but do not taint their legacy with inaccuracies
@@andrewalmas2791 You are correct in your accessment however I've been black been around predominantly black people for almost four decades and none of us had this document in our families.
SORRY, I mean REALLY SORRY! The story line sounded so good IM STILL GOING TO WATCH TIL THE END ….. BUT 5:29 That’s A Scarface (AL PICANO) Shirt🤣🤣🤣🤦🏾♂️
I always tell people that if I had the technology to time travel I would travel far, far into the future but would never travel farther back than the 1980s. That would be the era to re-experience for the awesome rock and pop music, video games, and TV shows.
Super random review in my feed, never hear of this movie but i like the dark humour concept of this film, thanks feels like i watch a whole movie in 12 min
@@thebestnoobyt1270 you know your Avatar being a noob signifies you having no robux yet have a creative mind, but technically you can do better like using the advance color option and also creating your own T-shirts to match the skin color or just invest on helping a family or friend and they might give some cash for you to buy robux😉
Well yeah, but mixed race people tend to have less melanin on average so usually end up looking more lightskin. But there can be siblings with different skin shades and the same parents. No one said they can’t.
@@vigde6664 Do you know that Africans don’t have the same skin tone? They don’t have to be mixed with anything for their skin tone to be different. Africans CAN have a deep skin tone but not all very light skinned Africans are mixed. My boyfriend gets this all the time where people think that he has to be mixed with something to be that light skinned yet African, his skin is translucent and he doesn’t have vitiligo or albinism. He’s just a light skinned African with no mixed heritage for the past 5 generations at least.
If you have enjoyed this movie/recap, and you like to read, I HIGHLY reccommend the book "Kindred" by Octavia E. Butler. It's a phenomenal story with time travel and slavery themes.
That ending. The second I seen the girls tore the paper, Aunty Vudu gonna catch a round to the dome. Ain’t sending my little girl back to the dark times.
It's interesting to look at what different countries were doing at different periods of time. If they found themselves in England in 1850 they would of been free men still.
@@Dtitilator There should be a movie about 1st worlders being sent back to 1600s Europe during the barbary trade. Maybe Kayleigh and Becky will learn to not be Karens if they're raised better.
The motto of this french movie when it aired was "la première comédie sur l'esclavage" (the first comedy movie about slavery) and as I've never seen a movie like this in another language I believe it's still the only one, even 11 years later hahaha
@@dawda9667 i have a minor ADHD its somekind of a sickness where u cannot focus and can easily get distracted. example i wanted to watch a movie but then youtube catches my attention but when i open youtube, i decided to open facebook, then i resume to watch movie, first 5 mins of the movie i go back to youtube forgetting whats my purpose of opening youtube then i go back to facebook to see more meme but then decided to play a video game and got bored 10 mins later then goes youtube again and then decided to read comics. so basicallyt ADHD is like cannot focus and u wanted to do something but not sure what.
The British were fighting Middle Eastern, Asian & african regions to end slavery in 1850 but there are still around 1 million slaves still in Africa owned by so called brothers…. To this day, to this day…..
I literally had to stop this after the few seconds because this movie looks amazing...need to watch this. That's what I love about this channel. Shows me movies I would never find by just browsing through NETFLIX.
Idk if I’m the only one but I now prefer to watch recaps of a movie instead of the actual movie. It’s more interesting and to the point. Also something about having a narrator makes it even more interesting to watch.
Go thousands of years and it'll no longer matter, because people of all nations and tribes didn't BS themselves with racial justifications and brutalized each other regardless of race for power and spoils. Native Americans weren't a peaceful people. The hundreds of tribes of Africa sure as hell weren't a peaceful people. And the many nations of Europe and Asia likewise wouldn't know peaceful most days of the week if it was right in their face...
If I were them, I would have a terrible anger issues after returns to my time line. It’s make me sick that humans are treating each other like if they were of different species.
@@thepuckingtontv9963 you missed her point entirely, she said she'd have anger issues because looking at today's black people and all evil we do to each other,it would definitely make one from that timeline very angry indeed. Im black myself and definitely agree
This is a great movie.... I still remember the scene where the lighter skin guy confronts the slave foreman that all the brutality towards them were due to their black skin and the foreman promptly replied "obviously" while laughing straight to his face 🤣🤣🤣
I like how they were caught by white people instead of being sold by their fellow tribesmen to Jewish merchants. And how Jews are presented as opposing slavery, while 50% of Jewish families in USA, back in those times, owned slaves, while only 3% of white families did also own them.
The movie has a few misconseptions about the past. In first place a "mulatto" like Regis would not only be better treated, but would not necessarily initially seen as slave, specially one who could read (specifically in the French Caribbean). Also, there is no reason to assume a Jew, even if he suffered religious prejudice, would be against slavery. Plenty of Jews were slave owners in the Caribbean.
@@coe3408 Indeed, it is nice to see someone knowing something of history. The jew part especially shocked me, I understand the message, but Jews weren't especially sympathetic to Blacks back then. And indeed, a lot of blacks and mulatto weren't slaves anymore even before the official abolition
I think a poor urban Jew would have had little to do with slavery. Those would be the rich Jews living in the South. The rich Jews weren’t so oppressed, they benefited from White supremacy where they teamed up with White Christians against the Blacks.
Yep.they were flying high with there get backs on the whites .Then they tried to smoke the pipe to leave and was like oh sh-t and the scene skipped to their ass being punished .I laughed tho the disappoint ment when not leaving the 1800'swas real!!😂
I want to know why the little girls were even arguing over a piece of paper so bad that they tore it in half in the end. They really wanted to read it i guess…
Lol I know right - that would be one sick grandmother to send her young granddaughters back in time to be raped, tortured and bred like cattle simply for tearing a paper 😮
I had only seen this movie once in its native language ('cause i'm French) and i was laughing my ass off throughout the whole movie, i highly recommend it
Case Depart is a brilliant French Movie. They tackle unapologically all the concepts of modern racism vs. back then racism... The writer and director is one on the who main actors. This movie is hillarious (It's a Dark Comedy... not as intense as this video sounds like)
Not that it matters a great deal, but if they are in 1780, then it's the 18th century, not the 17th. This is a great channel and I appreciate the recaps - this one looks like it would be a good to watch in full!
