Yes, I do know this film and I'd recommend it to anyone - it's brilliant. I don't think there can be anyone in northern France who hasn't seen it.
I find the Ch'ti patois pretty much unintelligible, although it's mostly older people who speak it.
There's new Dany Boon film which I haven't seen yet. Here's a link to the trailer:

In case you don't know, there's a nice French comedy set in Pas de Calais:
Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis/Welcome to the Sticks:

If I remember right, it was the highest grossing French film ever at one point.
