| Review: After Alexandre Aja (Piranha, Maniac), another french director starts a career in the USA. I skipped the movie at the Munich Fantasy Filmfest 2012, but since then I heard more good about it. I liked the original approach taken for the movie, and was kept interested until the first turnaround, but then I failed to feel involved enough and in the end I found the rythm too slow. Not as dissapointing as the usual french thriller or genre movie and their weak endings, but something was missing. |
