The new film by Florent-Emilio Siri, who I consider to be the best active French director, will be released in France on July 3rd.
An action and adventure film that has a great chance to dazzle you. So, for once, go see it at the cinema if you can, you won't regret it. It's "Man on Fire" but better, with a memorable duo between Roschdy Zem and Jeanne Michel (13 years old).
Imagine an anti-hero mentally handicapped by paranoia but that paranoia becomes a superpower like that of a comic book superhero when the threat is real. I hope you're hyped, go see this movie in theaters !
Synopsis :
Spoiler:
Elyas, a former Special Forces soldier who has become paranoid since a mission in Afghanistan, is recruited to ensure the safety of Amina and her daughter Nour, 13 years old, both of whom came from the Middle East for the holidays. As he takes office, Elyas senses something is up. Are his fellow security guards playing a double game ? Who are these mysterious individuals seen near the property ? Is this just his paranoia talking ? Under pressure, Elyas fights to keep his demons at bay. But when hell breaks loose on the family, Elyas no longer has a choice : he must once again become the formidable warrior he was.
Mea Culpa, I was very disappointed by this film, I didn't find it coherent, to the point of making me smile. It's a good B movie at times, broke. It's nice to defend a director and French cinema, but here I messed up .
