Review of The Nest

The Nest (2002)
7/10
Slightly confused but stylish
21 July 2005
I love a good French actioner (The Transporter and the Taxi films being a case in point) so was looking forward to seeing this.

I was a bit disappointed that it took so long for the situation to be set up. You already know from reading the DVD sleeve what the plot is going to be - yet it takes 30 minutes for the characters to arrive at the warehouse.

The action direction had some good set pieces but was at times choppy and confusing - and the film ended rather abruptly.

Still a very stylish and cool film - and I went straight out and bought the director's next film, Hostage starring Bruce Willis.
