La loi du cochon

This film came out, sadly, to little public interest but it did contribute to show that there is in fact a new trend of cinema coming out of Quebec, a trend characterized by fresher ideas and more audacious film making. 'La loi du cochon' is certainly a step forward in a different kind of cinema, a hipper one (because you need that kind too), with clear influences by films like Fargo and Reservoir Dogs. Violence, dark humour, bizarre situations, a great soundtrack, a clever script with interesting characters and, in this case, interesting visuals, the film having been shot entirely in digital. The camera also seems to often tilt and move around the characters, as if to throw us off balance or to add to the craziness of some characters. The many dead end situations the characters are put into will keep you on the edge of your seat for the whole ride and a few good laughs are also to be expected although the fate of most characters will make you cringe more than smile. A definite must-see for fans of the genre.

ok... a user already explained the plot and sumarise all this...

but what I want to bring tough is the liaison we can make to quentin tarantino and eric canuel...

This movie, i don't want to frustate anybody... but this movie can be comparate at reservoir dogs or pulp fiction beacause of all the emotion it can bring... And I think, what's make a great movie is the emotion that it can reach inside of the spectator...

that's it folk

LOL, Pulp Fiction wannabe, I thought we got over that phase, but these movies keep coming back. The filmmakers didn't know how to use video, I've seen video movies that had no lighting and still looked better than this. An amateur effort.
