No hagas olas

Wasted time It had all the ingredients to be a great movie unfortunately the ending ruins the whole effort, I don't know what the screenwriter was thinking but this movie had to give some answers especially since it says it is based on real events! What's the point if you don't tell us what happened to the character in the movie? Without an ending he didn't have anything new to say all the messages he wanted to get across we've seen them in other movies 1000 times and with more meaning too bad. The direction is very nice the protagonist plays fantastically as do the rest of the characters, he tries to touch on the loopholes that exist in the legal system and how unprotected a person is who has not been taken care of by the system but the script is all so superficial that in combination with the sketchy finale they destroy the whole movie, when the creator can't write something good and worked he just leaves things hanging to pass as something cultural for Cannes.

This French film draws inspiration from the real-life experiences of its director, Teddy Lussi-Modeste, who also worked as a teacher. The story unfolds in a school located in Seine-Saint-Denis, a suburb of Paris, during the year 2019. Initially, the film adheres to the conventional style of French cinema, introducing the key characters involved in the story of a gay teacher accused of inappropriate conduct towards a female student, but later gets lost in kind of an explanatory mode!

What begins as a minor incident rapidly escalates into a catastrophic situation that devastates numerous lives.

The screenplay is of decent quality, complemented by impressive cinematography, while the acting is average, and other elements of the production are merely satisfactory. At the moment, France faces numerous challenges as a nation, with the struggles within the education system being particularly severe. This film focuses on it in a way that very often feels tasteless or bland!

Do you remember an André Cayatte's film from 1967, starring Jacques Brel, as a school teacher accused of molesting - or raping - a little girl? Probably not. Anyway, it's not necessary to have watched the two films; the period is not the same but the plot yes. It is in the line of what happens today from time to time in schools. Good acting and realistic situations. It evokes modern issues. Good French drama which main strength is to remain factual, without any message to deliver. At least that's the way I saw it. François Civil is really a rising star who seems to be able to play any kind of role.

Watched this on an airplane but should have spent the time reading my book. M. Civil turns in as good a performance as can be expected, but the overall film is seriously lacking in dramatic impact and emotional engagement. Kinda surprising, given its the true story of one of its directors. Blah disguised as social commentary. Actually the kids display more emotion - probably because they're kids and kids are often quite cruel. I don't quite understand why that's true but I know their antisocial behavior is not unique to French culture - perhaps even more so in America. I just wish this film didn't have the French New Wave anti-climatic ending. Blah and blah again.

As French man we used to watching movie like this in france especially in sector of school and this movie it's pretty much good and enough chilling anyway thanks to a lot of points !

The script it's very nice even if I expected better about the end of movie but in all the movie it's great, several times I was chilling in front several scenes and I felt sorry for some of the characters on some situations, it's very a movie when they gonna telling story that you remember not long time but it is so emotional a lot, not a masterpiece but a good story that happened by a real guy unfortunately cause it's based on a true story !!! It's crazy but it's happen

First to all the acting are so nice, the main character play by Francois Civil was great and the French actor that I appreciate a lot played his role very well and this kind of performance for me to winning an César (Alternative of an Oscar in France) cause play a role like this that he got to give several different deep emotion it's not easy to play, it's not beautiful performance ever neither but it's very good performance!!!

And the rest of cast like others teachers, students... play very well too especially character of " Leslie " she played very great !!!

The directing was well, not very good or great cause I think he could do better to telling the story even if it was not bad, not at all but he could makes better about a lot of shoots to explain and telling a specifically moment of movie, disappointing a bit ...

Not big soundtracks too bad but lights playing very well !!!
