Wendy Ide The Times (UK) 12/04/2014
2/5
The French thriller Mea Culpa is indeed a very, very stupid film. Go to Full Review
Andrew Pulver Guardian 12/04/2014
3/5
Cavay pumps up the car chases and shootouts, and pumps down the plausibility; but it all moves along at such a lick it doesn't matter much. Go to Full Review

Handsome action nonsense. Go to Full Review
Stefan Pape HeyUGuys 12/24/2014
3/5
Though unreservedly generic - particularly in the storytelling and the indistinctive narrative structure, Mea Culpa remains a picture that's easy to indulge yourself in. Go to Full Review

Donna C 03/02/2024 I absolutely loved it. I was sceptical at first to watch it based on the review that I read but it's a must see. It's captivating and compelling and reviting. Mysterious and dramatic. I am glad I watched it. Mea Culpa is a must see. See more Taniqua J 02/24/2024 It was good. Very extra and dramatic but still put together well. See more 07/27/2017 All the bangs and flashes are in the right place, though virtually none of the characters are developed. It's an over-produced chase scene, but most thrillers are little more. Yet Cavayé is able to evoke the odd slice of emotion amongst all of the 'don't think too hard on this one' action. Simple plot? Yes. Well done? Yes. But 'Point Blank' was better. See more 07/09/2017 Once the French made tight well scripted seductive policiers, alas it seem's no longer. Lazy cliched action film without wit or panache or tension. See more 11/06/2015 kinda hard to follow through the first 1/3 though picks up abit ish towards the end. kudos to the DP and camera crew on this one for making the Epic look awesome as always. See more 11/03/2015 French suspence-movie from the moment the Kid saw something he shouldn't see ...why are those bad people Always so ugly ? See more Read all reviews
