Reviews
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
A good movie: good script, well-crafted, solid and captivating plot, good interpretation and a message of good value on integrity conditioning happiness. Pierre wants to square his life, making it stable, so that he could get granted half-time custody of his son he loves. He is willing to obey orders as a security guard at his new job. Of course, nature drives him to be zealous with integrity. But this integrity is not servility. He always thinks by himself. That puts it on the tightrope of the professional promotion scheme with constant threat of being fired if results fall. Little by little, the dilemma grows and his integrity is challenged more and more. The story is well fed and not boring at all. If one goes a bit further than the apparent look of an happy end, one might as well catch a good life lesson of what can often happen to someone who is naturally good and looking for simple and clean life. Why should the movie end on anything else ?
The topic at the start was promising. Not so usual to describe the daily life at work for a security guard in charge of a major shopping center. Adapted from a novel, itself written by a former guard, the audience can here find many unknown methods used by those private eyes to catch the shoplifters and other thieves. And the audiences may also watch for the unbearable working conditions in which the female employees have to earn their salary. Some realistic sequences here, not so very often shown in movies, even in France. But unfortunately, the movie sinks rapidly with classical lines, foreseeable at the most, with a lead, the guard, the good hero who have to deal with rotten supervisors and also the so much expected love affair with the poor female cash clerk. In summary, a total waste made for family audiences, with the unbearable happy ending. Forget it. Such a shame for this kind of story at the start.
