Les Vieux Fourneaux 2 : bons pour l'asile continues the adventures of our three aging heroes, always ready to shake up the established order. This second opus, directed by Christophe Duthuron, once again adapts the famous comic strip by Wilfrid Lupano and Paul Cauuet. Pierre Richard, Eddy Mitchell and Bernard Le Coq reprise their respective roles in this comedy that blends humor, social drama and political commitment.
Les Vieux Fourneaux 2 : bons pour l'asile will be broadcast on France 3 on Monday April 14, 2025 at 9:05pm.
Synopsis: To help migrants he's been hiding in Paris, Pierrot takes them to Antoine's home in the South-West of France, where Mimile is in the midst of winning back Berthe. Expecting to find peace and quiet in the countryside, the six refugees get a taste of the legendary hospitality of a French village. It's the perfect opportunity to shake up fears and prejudices for Sophie and our three Vieux Fourneaux, unexpected consultants in an election campaign that Larquebuse, the mayor of Montcœur, won't soon forget.
In Les Vieux Fourneaux 2 : bons pour l'asile, humor serves as a backdrop to important social issues: reflection on migrants, rural prejudice and republican values. The comedy takes a more political turn, with an electoral issue in the small commune of Montcœur, where the three friends find themselves embroiled in a rather special municipal campaign. The film tackles profound themes while maintaining a light, playful tone, true to the spirit of the series.
This film is aimed primarily at fans of socially engaged comedies, especially those who enjoyed the first opus. Viewers with a taste for slightly subversive humor and generational storytelling will undoubtedly appreciate the characters' dynamics, their interactions and their vision of life in retirement. The themes of generation clash and solidarity with refugees are particularly relevant in today's context. Fans of entertaining films with a message should find plenty to enjoy here.
Les Vieux Fourneaux 2 : bons pour l'asile is a sequel that lives up to viewers' expectations, offering a new adventure full of laughter, tenderness and commitment. With a solid cast and a story that's both funny and moving, this film is an excellent choice for a movie night with friends or family.
