Overrated and overhyped

Disappointment for a huge fan!

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I've tried on a few occasions (mainly because I have a bad memory) to watch this film but it is SO dire that I have never achieved my goal. Life is short! Don't waste it on this amateur nonsense!

I found this film rather shallow, with lots of violence and little in the way of serious plot. Simon was an interesting character but could have been developed further, I feel. Violence in films will always draw an audience but if not supported by a meaningful story it's appeal is seriously limited, in my opinion.

Also 1 star for fake 10 star reviews by the film company interns, and IMDb's lack of fake review blocking.Vincent Lindon may be an okay actor but, he's pretty homely, so I guess that he insisted that the rest of the male cast (all cops and bad guys) have to look really ugly. His character's wife and all the other women in the film are 30 years younger with great looking tea teas. Quite a contrast that makes the film unintentionally funny. So then there's a plot that his son saw a murder scene and the whole gang has to chase the kid down for the rest of the movie. They publicly kill many people before and after but, apparently none of the hundreds of those witnesses need to be chased down, just this kid, ???Shootings, chasings, grapple-fighting like a TV cop show; boring. If they wanted a hit, and since they obviously don't care about plot or character development, they should have added big explosions like any typical Michael Bay turkey. This film is less than that.

An accident can mess up your life completely. Especially if you're not in control ... Some might call it tough luck, others unfortunate circumstances, but whatever the case our main lead had a rough ride up until now and it doesn't seem to get better for him (or his family, whether they are close to him or not doesn't matter, because he does care for them).The acting is more than solid and the story is really nicely and expertly told. There might be things that you can tell happening and you might see twists even before they are revealed fully, but that doesn't take anything away from the movie. It just shows you've seen a lot of movies, which isn't a bad thing either. A lot french thrillers seem to be worth your while, definitely this one
