Domino - La Guerre silencieuse

This movie is pretty decent. The score and camera work reminds me of Body Double, another De Palma film. Maybe the music used works better in a NY or LA setting but it wasn't a movie killer for me. Terrorist plotline is somewhat worn out for me but still held my attention. Give the film a try.

6/10

I don't understand why this movie has received so many negative reviews. This reminded me very much of his earlier thrillers, and in my view it was a good action movie.

I found the cinematography great, the acting passable and the action sequences suspenseful. For example, the chase sequence on the roof was clearly a homage to Hitchcock (a feature found in many of De Palma's movies), and the scene in which the viewer is suddenly made aware of the protagonist's gun being left even though it had been literally in the center of the screen for a while was quite clever. The female terrorist attack sequence was surely inspired by actual attacks in which terrorists filmed themselves in real time, and as such novel to me.

I found the pacing decent, the plot easy to follow and the international set added to the interest for me. The final action sequence, the beginning of which was signaled by a "Bolero" clone was signature De Palma: Slow motion, multiple happenings, all really drawing this viewer in.

My main criticism would be that I did not find the plot very realistic, but then, with this kind of movie it is kind of expected to suspend disbelief.

This was a pretty recognizable De Palma film which entertained me for its entire duration. I would recommend it to fans of the action thriller genre.

I'm a big De Palma fan, and i have loved almost every film he has made. Ok, its not one of his best films, but giving it 1 and 2 stars is just ridiculous. It has all the elements a De Palma film should have and i really enjoyed the way he builds up the suspense in the story. I loved the slow motion scene in the bullfight arena. I know it's a bit weird that all the Danish actors talk English, but i didn't mind. I myself are Danish and i know all the actors from Danish and they are all great actors. I would recommend everyone who like De Palma films to watch it and forget about all the hater's reviews.

It's a complete fail on all levels, bad directing, bad music, bad acting, bad story, pace, sound, and really cheap propaganda against Muslims, doesn't help the situation at all. People who're behind this movie need to go some kind of rehab.

... as dumb as this. Stupid, dumb, boring, cheap... A complete waste of time.
