Phillip Lacasse (Cranston), a Park Avenue billionaire left paralysed after a hang-gliding accident forms an unlikely friendship with recently paroled ex-con Dell Scott (Hart), a man in need of a job and a fresh start. As they get to know each other, Phillip and Dell bridge their differences and gain invaluable wisdom in the process, renewing each other's joie de vivre.

"So little has been done to update or refresh "The Intouchables" for American culture or a new audience that "The Upside" has no integrity as a separate piece of work."

VarietyVariety

"The suggestion - even in a crowd-pleasing comedy - that America's racial divides can be bridged by Pavarotti and a joint is downright Stone Age."

Time OutTime Out

"Jon Hartmere's script has genuinely funny moments and is blessedly short on crassness: even a scene involving catheters and colon hygiene is less cringey than you might expect."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Boasts funny, powerful performances, but can’t escape its racial subtext."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"The central odd-couple characters effectively utilise both the comic skills and dramatic abilities of Bryan Cranston and Kevin Hart, whose affectionate chemistry provides a large part of the film's appeal."

Screen DailyScreen Daily

""The Upside" was probably never going to be a good movie, but it needn't have been such an unfortunate, spectacularly ill-timed one, the victim of circumstances it ultimately has neither the wit nor the imagination to transcend."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"There's something so disarming about Phillip and Dell's relationship that you're gradually sucked into it without asking too many questions."
