A smart drama/thriller driven by excellent acting, solid plot, and more-than competent directing and filming.
Instead of relying on 'action' and special effects, this French film builds intrigue and suspense whilst keeping it real and believable.
At two hours, it might seem a little long, yet it never drags, every scene adds meaning and develops the plot, and the emotional ups-and-downs are integral to furthering the story - not just the story itself.
As the plot builds you expect the protagonist to prevail, yet will he in the face of both internal and external difficulties?
Enjoyable, well-paced, this is a film anyone should enjoy.
