While Terence Hill did his best to encapsulate and embody the role of Lucky Luke (very funny how the french say his name by the way), Jean Dujardin actually has the look down! Especially with the little bit of hair that "hangs" just outside his hat. I really dug what they did here, even if I remember certain things differently from the comics and even if Rantanplan (the dog) is MIA and Jolly Jumper (the horse) can not be heard thinking ... most of the time. But what can you put in here, considering how long the comics where going on for? It is not an easy task to put as much in here as possible.
Having said that, the humor is well thought of and the movie has even some adult themed issues it serves us (plus there are actual bullet wounds - which surprised me a bit to be honest). Funny and action packed, this is probably as close as we can get to a more than decent adaptation of the awesome .. shame the box office did not agree with me ...
