La Tour 2 contrôle infernale (2016)
Directed by Eric Judor

Film Synopsis

When we first met them in 2001, Eric and Ramzy were working as window cleaners at Paris's Montparnasse Tower when they got themselves caught up in a fantastic adventure involving trigger-happy hoodlums.  You'd never guess it, but twenty years before this these two supposed numbskulls were two of the most highly rated pilots in the French military.  Back in October 1981, Ernest Krakenkrick and Bachir Bouzouk (as they were then known) were training to be France's first astronauts when disaster struck.  Owing to an unfortunate mishap with a centrifuge during a test exercise, both men suffered severe brain damage which robbed them of their memory and their intellectual ability.

Reduced to virtual idiots, the two men were soon demobbed from the military and found more menial work as baggage handlers at Aurly-Ouest Airport.  Coincidentally, this was the moment at which a ruthless group of terrorists known as Les Moustachious chose to strike against the airport, grabbing a hostage and then taking over the control tower.  As the Minister of the Interior tries to negotiate a resolution to this crisis, Ernest and Bachir soon realise that it is up to them to take on the terrorists single-handedly and prevent a catastrophe.  What they lack in intelligence they more than make up for in courage.  Unfortunately, now that their combined IQ is down to single digits, that's probably not such a proud boast...
