Dark, Twisted & Slick - Pretty Decent Action Flick.
27 November 2006
I'm starting to like French action movies. This one reminded me a little bit in its feel of Kiss of the Dragon, minus the kung-fu.

The colouring and mood of the film are dark and edgy, as are its characters. Jean Reno delivers a good time, as per usual.

I will say that the plot twists to the point of nonsense, but it's still a good ride.

The film also has a hint of an Islamophobic air, given the current geopolitical climate, but not to the point of being overt.

In all, one of the best action films I've seen in a while, highly recommended within its genre.
