It’s been 5 years since Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s last film, A Very Long Engagement was released, and although it wasn’t quite as widely loved as Amelie, it successfully combined his strong visual style with significantly more serious subject matter. His latest film Micmacs, however, appears to be a return to the fantastical whimsy of Amelie, despite the fact that it once again deals with darker issues of war and weapons manufacturers.

Dany Boon stars as Bazil, a young man who is hit in the head by a stray bullet from a drive-by shooting. He survives, but after leaving the hospital he finds himself unemployed until he is taken in by a group of misfits living in a junkyard. From here he plots his revenge on two Parisian arms dealers. The movie premiered at TIFF last year and was picked up by Sony Pictures Classics just prior to the festival. They will give it a limited release on May 28th; check out the full domestic trailer after the jump and see what you think.
