Hailing from across the Atlantic Ocean, Emmanuel delivers us his insight on those creepy eight-legged crawlies we know as spiders. Generally, I can handle spiders, they are not usually a problem for me but when they get as big as they do in the movie, you can guarantee that I will do whatever it takes to find my way out of the building. Even if it means that I have to jump out of the 20th story window; it’s all about survival. I’d rather have a broken leg than suffer the fate of being bitten by one of those horrors.

So what’s there to say about Emmanuel’s character in the movie? That he is the grumpy neighbor and is always under the conclusion that his neighbors are drug dealers and thieves? Let’s assume that his character is right in this instance, that his neighbors are drug dealers. Would that have changed the circumstances? Who knows…

However, I do know that Emmanuel is a very talented actor who portrayed his role perfectly. I had no doubts that this gentleman is one of France’s finest actors. I’m not saying that because I am French, also – I am saying that because I have an eye for talent and Mr. Bonami is not running short on that talent. His fate at the end of the movie on the other hand was quite predictive, though. Then again, I wasn’t counting on anyone getting out of that apartment complex alive. I stand corrected…

Overall, great actor and great movie. Anything to do with spiders that are the size of a basketball, you can forget it! I will be on the edge of my seat and probably biting my nails. The entire duration of the movie, my adrenaline was pumping, and my heart was racing because the movie is unpredictable. If you do have arachnophobia, I highly suggest that you watch this movie with the lights on and have a flamethrower sitting next to you because you don’t’ know what’s going to crawl up your leg when you’re not looking.

If you think the movie “Arachnophobia” is scary, then you are in for a huge surprise. This movie surpasses it with all of the right elements: the acting, the dialogue, the jump scares, and the tension. Buckle up because you are in for one hell of a ride!
