The French are terrible at making thrillers


They always try so hard and fail miserably, they should stick to comedies, dramas, and the WTF movies.

Seriously, this was so bad, nothing had any logic to it.

Have you ever seen the Crimson Rivers?

to be honest the French are beating Hollywood (which only produces shallow by-the-numbers-thrillers lately) the last years in creating intelligent thrillers.

films like this one, ne le dis a personne, mesrine, mr73, cette femme la, un prophete

So not true. Here are films by Jacques Audiard if nothing else.

I think Hollywood is so beyond in this respect. French are au pair with Koreans.

i thought it was very good.
the plot was a little too busy and parts of the story were somewhat not believable, but i enjoyed it and the plot actually held up.
i thought the acting was terrific all around.
and i'm a hard grader.
