An easy film to fall for -- it's slick, proficient and has just enough depth to lift it above your average, humdrum crime drama. Go to Full Review

Liam D @Mediawatcher2003 11/12/2024 While it definitely falls into the same tired cliches. It’s a slick and well made gangster movie that has some tight action sequences See more Rosana B 09/14/2024 A Trama tem uma premissa muito boa, baseado em fatos reais, que o super amo, entretanto comecei bens motivada, e a motivação não veio durante o filme, embora houvesse várias cenas interessantes e algumas poucas e repugnantes de tortura, uma linda história de amor bandido, sociedade, amizade, cumplicidade e traição, ótimos elementos para um bom suspense, que não me cativou tanto quanto supunha… Um bom filme sobre a vida de crimes e redenção de Edmond "Momom" Vidal... See more 12/14/2016 Strong acting as always from Lanvin and Karyo with a interesting tone and execution of story. See more 03/24/2016 much grainz. such lyonnais. many action See more 11/28/2015 was an excellent movie, even if you did have to read the subtitles....recommend it highly See more 05/18/2014 Really like the way it was filmed.
