Die Welt gehört dir

Make it a better place, for and for me ... oh wait, I got sidetracked. But that happens when I see a title like "the world is yours", I just have to take it apart. Something that you also can do with this movie, if you are not feeling it. But if that is the case you are letting yourself down and are going to miss on a bit of fun you could have had.

This is a crime movie as is apparent and characters may not all be likeable (understatement I know), but it also has heart and family issues in it. Not to mention a lot of characters and a lot of strings that need to be tied up by the end. Depending your threshold and your attention span and interest in this in general, you will find it either amusing or rather annoying. Still well made, with some over the top characters (again with the understatement) and quite some fun to watch

Loved this from start to finish. Wonderful to see a film with a great original story and an amazing cast. Faultless - go and see it

Overall, I would rate this film a 8/10. The character development and focus on telling a deeper meaning are what make this such a great film. Learning to escape the cycle of bad habits is not an easy one. Francois is a prime example of what it means to start over. Sometimes it is not always about the journey, but what is the outcome of your decisions. The emphasis on character development is shown a lot throughout the film. From dealing with a rocky relationship with his mother, to being in the drug scene, Francois has multiple breakdowns throughout the film. However, with the help of Lamya, his world is flipped upside down.

The director, Roman Gavras tells the story of the couple who beat all odds and made a life for themselves. However, it may not be a life full of opportunity. The film takes place in Africa in the Magreb region.

Awards for this movie include :Best Supporting Actress for Isabelle Adjani and Most Promising Actor for Karim Leklou. There are no awards for the film as a whole.

In the end, I would highly recommend this film. I would recommend this film to anyone 18 and up. Since this film deals with the idea of drugs and crime is why I would say 18 and up. However, the story between the mother and son hardships can display a good lesson for the younger generation.

This is a really bad movie. I sincerely cannot understand why somebody created this film. Bad scenario, bad acting, plot without connection. It could be a comedy, but it is not, it could be an adventure, but it is not, it could be a gangster-film, but it is not. Apparently it turns out to be nothing. It is actually a mircale that Vincent Cassel accepted to participate in this film. The movie is full with cliche and bad humour. I would expect something more from the director Romain Gavras. I said he is the son of Costas Gavras, let's give him another chance after Athena. Nope, bad choice again.

Great talents here. You understand this shifty crazy world of la racaille française.
