Untouchable's box office takings, currently at over £350,000,000, have already reached those that could be expected from a Hollywood blockbuster. That it hasn't played yet in several significant countries, and given the hype surrounding it, you can be sure there is plenty of cash still to be rinsed from the cinema going public.
Okay, so I found the 'rich disabled tosser, hires feckless young povo to be his carer, but they both learn a lot from each other' storyline to be a little tiresome, but as a human drama it was engaging, touching and extremely funny. Also, if you can look beyond the irritating class politics, the portrayal of the everyday challenges for a person with a severe disability has garnered it well deserved respect.
Both the leading performances are excellent and if you're looking for a classic feelgood movie, you'll not leave disappointed. Out in cinemas on Friday 21st September.
