Every day, AlloCiné recommends a film to (re)watch on TV. Tonight: Alice Pol as a goofy heroine in a comedy by Dany Boon.
After La Maison du bonheur, Bienvenue chez les Ch’tis, Nothing to declare and Supercondriaque, Dany Boon is working on his fifth production, entitled RAID Dingue, released on screens in 2017. This project, which he has been nurturing for ten years already, is inspired by the police comedies of the 80s, in which the protagonist is as heroic as he is funny and clumsy.
Alice Pol – sort of Pierre Richard in the feminine – embodies Johanna Pasquali, a blundering policewoman who mistakenly joins the elite group of RAID. Dany Boon gives him the reply in the skin of a misogynistic agent. Together, they form an improbable duo responsible for stopping the fearsome Leopard Gang, responsible for major robberies in the streets of the capital (special mention to Yvan Attal, very cheerful in the role of the villain).
To be credible in his role, Dany Boon was trained by stuntman and fight choreographer Alain Figlarz. He thus underwent intensive training based on weight training, shooting and climbing, while eating a lot of egg whites, Grisons meat or 0% fat cottage cheese. The result is without appeal: the actor-director has indeed lost 15 kilos, to regain 10 of muscles!
Crazy RAID by Dany Boon with Alice Pol, Dany Boon, Michel Blanc…
