Point Blank / A Bout Portant

4 Jul

A must see

A trainee nurse and his pregnant wife are thrown into a world of organized crime and corruption after he saves the life of a safe-hacking crook. When his wife is kidnapped he must work alongside the man who has dragged him into the grimy underworld of crime in Paris, and avert the corrupt police force.

This thriller enthrals and captivates the audience; convincing performances from the cast, especially leading man Gilles Lellouche, engross our belief in the story, and the twists and turns that the plot takes – although somewhat predictable – keep us on the edge of our seats throughout the film.

It adds little more to the genre where everything has been done; it is unlikely to take of as The Bourne Identity, Taken and others have done (helped by the universal appeal and mass market of the English language) but the film is brilliant and indicates bigger things to come from a fantastic director.

A must see for any thriller fans.
