Sans répit

This is a decent effort. Corrupt cops that we somehow root for, this movie starts off well and delivers a good story. OK, we have to suspend belief at times but all in all this is well worth a watch.

Not any good? The story is wild and bizarre. And it gets better along the way, with even more suspenseful twists and turns.

The bad: unfortunately this French Netflix movie is an exact copy of "A Hard Day", a South Korean movie. And this French copy is inferior to the original. Why? Because of mediocre acting. These French actors aint bad, but they are simply a bit bland, while the South Korean movie had great acting performances, with a terrific bad guy. None of that in this bland Netflix copy.

Only "recommended" for those folks who absolutely prefer to hear French language, instead of South Korean.

Apparently this is the French remake of a Korean film, A Hard Day. French cinematographer Régis Blondeau makes his writing and directing debut with this film, and considering it's his first film, it wasn't all that bad. His directing was decent, but his writing had continuity issues, was convoluted, and the slow pacing made the normally comfortable 95 min runtime feel like over 2 hours. Otherwise the little action there was, was solid, with great casting and performances. It's a decent one-time watch if your craving a cop/crime thriller.

Since when french cinema had to make a remake of a movie to "tell" a story ?? What a disappointment ! I wish i watched the original one first, the Korean version, u must be stupid or brainless to try to remade a Korean movie, u ll never catch the atmosphere & the dna of it. Its a pity to waste the energy of such actors as Simon Abkarian & Gastambide.

Netflix describes the movie as:After going to extremes to cover up an accident, a corrupt cop's life spirals out of control when he starts receiving threats from a mysterious witness.

There is nothing new which you have not watched nth time. It is just a time pass movie. If you have exhausted all good mystery and thrillers on Streaming websites than you can watch it otherwise there are far better thrillers and mystery movies on Netflix , Prime and Disney Hotstar.
