Modern French western
18 April 2020
This feature is in the tradition of French crime westerns taking place outside the suburbs or cities at night. You can think about: CANICULE, LA HORSE, TOTAL WESTERN, LES GRANDES GUEULES....; Maybe a little more about LA HORSE, the scheme of drug gangsters who want to get their stuff back from a farm or another place in the deep France. Yes, we can watch it as a western with Sami Bouajila in a character very close to the one he already had in BRAQUEURS, a poignant role, a man lost in advance. The supporting characters are not the best I have ever seen, and that's a shame. But that remains a gritty, bloody and brutal French crime flick. I enjoyed the body count game...And one more thing, this movie came out thanks to Netflix, with whom directors have total freedom, no matter R rating or under 16 bull sh....they have to suffer for theaters release. Julien Leclercq said in an interview that the found a golden vein with Netflix, and many more French genre movies directors too.
