If you loved The Specials, try The Intouchables
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano, and they both carry the cozy, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Specials, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Intouchables is
An awkward aristocrat and a brash ex-con somehow avoid mutual destruction. Their odd-couple symbiosis turns care into chaos and company into camaraderie. The result feels earned, if a little too slick for its own good.
