Denard Anatomy of An Antihero

Another strong entry into the Borrowed Time trilogy.

Even stronger performances from a dream cast that includes many Hollywood legends such as Mohammed Qissi and brother Abdel Qissi. Louis Mandylor and Silvio Simac to name but a few.

Alan Delabie yet again shows he can lead a film with charisma, technique and most importantly great acting. He again carries the drama and more than delivers on the action.

Another very impressive score that yet again helps carry that retro charm we all enjoyed in the late 80s early 90s action movies.

Definitely seek this film out upon release, you will not be disappointed.

Not bad , love the atmosphere, good soundtrack, good acting drama, very amazing nunchaku demo ...cool cast , good to see tong po Michel Qissi and louis mandylor very good scene.

Novice writer, director, producer, and stunt coordinator for this barely a B-film, Alan Delabie - who also cast himself as the lead, gives an outstanding display of Nunchaku kata. But that's it.

My biggest issue in this film was the indecisiveness of choosing the language; it was 50% French, and 50% English. Why? It got annoying really quick. Then there was the horrible directing and poorly cut/edited scenes. With the exception of Louis Mandylor and his minimal screen time, it's probably the worst acting I've seen in a long time, I'm sure partly due to the lack of cast direction from Delabie. The writing was all over the place with back and forth mostly useless dialogue to the nonsense long and dragged out story with barely any substance. It was riddled with plot and technical issues, with an abundance of unnecessary random scene changes. The 80 min runtime and snail pacing dragged on feeling like a 3+ hour film. Half of the choreography was decent, the other half laughable. Then there was the typical loud, constant and overbearing score right from the start that tells you this will be a B quality production. However, some of the soundtrack was awesome. This film probably rates as one of the worst I've seen, and the only reason for my generous 2/10 is all for Delabie's amazing Nunchaku kata and a few good soundtracks.

Its great to see a production in Europe pulling this off, with the vibe and energy of a good movie from 80's, something whats really missing these days. The music does its work really well here, happy to see Silvio Simac as well in here what makes a great matchmaking. Lots of respect for the filmmakers on this. Also the drama is an important part next to the action as nowdays you see a lot of action movies with unmotivated action. The concept of Antihero is what we need to see more, we have been bombarded by marvel with that, this keeps our feet on the ground thats also a part why I give it a 10 out of 10 because we need to see more of this.
