Story
Two girls disappear
Police recruit Paul Chartier joins a secret unit tracking a sex offender. After the operation goes awry, Chartier pursues the perpetrators independently, frustrated by legal restrictions.. He introduces Nosferatu, a symphony of diet (1922). I know it should be called "if you can" … and I think that would work too … but I decided to go that way …
who survived and who didn’t
it’s still not meant to be. The film is based on a true story – and I have no idea what happened in the 90s … and from what I understand, it takes a lot of creative license … with who did what to whom … and I assume the main character (the police/gendarmerie) is an amalgamation of many characters into one – of course I could be wrong, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that were the case. , the movie may be long (2.5 hours), but in reality it never is.
I would argue that not
Well maybe during the wedding stuff at the beginning … I’ve been there, done that and knew it. Greeks believe similarly – like Italians … is it necessary for the story? but maybe I’m missing something. The suspense part is really well done …
you feel for the main character
a lot of things go wrong … he has the right eye, he has the right "nose" … but will he manage to convince the others of it too? A lot of departments work almost against each other … this is well told and acted … I still lack the x-factor to overdo it …
more tension throughout
as much praise as it has received … and as good as it is … it lacks the final push … maybe a little more charisma … and so on.
