Audience Member More than a story of spies who play normal people, it is a story of normal people who play spys. Not funny enough to be a comedy, not brilliant enough to attract, not intelligent enough to fascinate, and with doubtful political messages which you can believe or not in real life, the problem is you don't believe these characters even although (most of them) are played by good actors. The interesting note comes from the amusing character of Turturro, but that is only a spark in a movie that you can watch, but without being really captivated. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review walter m After receiving word from her former colleague Elliott, Irene Montano(Juliette Binoche) collects his daughter Orlando(Sara Forestier) to meet him in Paris. But Elliott never shows. Which is a good thing considering that William Pound(John Turturro) is gunning for him. Who does show up is Elliott's stepson David(Tom Riley, of 'Da Vinci's Demons') who along with Irene and Orlando head to Venice, after losing William. All of which leaves the fate of Irene's pet turtle undetermined. "A Few Days in September" is an offbeat movie about family, intrigue, guns, travel and poetry and maybe not in that order. Considering when the story is set, the movie's leisurely pace could be thought of as symptomatic of a pre 9/11 way of thinking where all the clues are there but not the impetus to act on them. What is not up for debate is this being a movie that is helped out with both Juliette Binoche and John Turturro being in it, especially with Turturro speaking French.

Not very thrillerish Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Had to watch this twice. Characters excel. Sara Forestier amazingly watchable and Tom Riley very likeable. Juliette Binoche brought class and humour and kept the story together. John Torturro superb as psychotic killer.
