Ya see what I did there? 😜 The cinematography and special effects for the gore scenes were excellent. The directing was decent as was the cast performances, but I felt some actors were missing that oomf factor, and felt like they were there only for the paycheck. The action wasn't really anything to get excited about and felt bland. It certainly needed much more of it. The pacing was quite slow so the 116 min runtime felt like almost 3 hours. There were many plot and technical issues, and the story somewhat convoluted and seemed to be put together in a rush. Nevertheless, it was an entertaining film, but I feel it missed the mark to be a great one. So it's a 7 /10 from me

A French police drama where all the cops seems to be corrupt, weaving a complicated web of double crosses, macho posturing and the odd action scene. The plot holds your interest, moving along at a good pace and although the ending's a bit odd, it fits in with the overall theme. Good acting and setting, but apart from the opening, is lacking in truly memorable characters or scenes.

A fun crazed French action cop gang movie where everyone is dirty and looks like they're in a really cool French sunglasses ad featuring tough cops and gangsters. The script and plot are about as to be expected from a sunglasses ad. 😅

I think this is a cop/mafia movie as real as it gets. Its dark, gritty and palpable. The ending is what makes it all the more absolute. It's funny that crappy comic cop shows like Bad boys gets a better rating than a substantial one. Just goes to show what people want to see and what they want to believe. I think this movie is a solid seven.

I made some good attempts to finish this movie, when we insisted so much it probably indicates that it's not that good, although the action scenes (which I don't usually enjoy so much) are the best, like the initial shootout at the party, on the beach and the delivery of drugs and the final outcome, the deaths are the best, the film was reasonable, but as I have a crush on French cinema I forced myself to like this one... Confused, but usable... I liked it...
