I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Am I Missing Something?

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

This movie was great. The acting was excellent. Usually foreign films aren't that great. This was. It's about a man who sacrifices everything for the love of his life and the love of his life 10 years ago sacrifices hers to save his new loves life. Excellent film. Also about street racing. It's not like fast and furious or any of those movies. It a lot more deep into the human emotions. You get to see what a person is capable of in the most trying of situations. It's a fast paced movie, with in depth emotion, good acting and a decent plot. I can't think of a movie that's done what it has. The street racing aspect of the movie was a minor detail. The real them is about the main character giving everything so the woman he loves will live. It implies strongly that she does and also implies he goes to jail over it. The gangster he kills turns out to be a cop and you can see remorse for his actions in the sense that he was hoping to kill someone deserving to die.

I think the film was, good, but Max, I think he was mad.I can go along with his passion to save his girlfriend but it's not realistic to kidnap and take the heart of some poor bastard he knew little about. We got to know too little about Max father and who he was and what business his father had. How did he meet Morgane? Who was the advocate? I think the play between Morgane and Max was very good. It hurt when she drowned in that water. Then it looks like she was becoming brain-dead and ironically gave heart. It could be another way to do this story on. Action scenes was very good and Max performing these himself,the most scenes.The planning was bad for the heart extraction.Max should think the advocate could figure out where he took the cop.Max talking about a heart and kidnapping the cop.There was no need for high IQ to figure that out. It seemed Max acted in panic.It could have been a great movie. The film leaves a bad taste. It was such a bad ending.

Why do I award five stars to this film? Because of what it could have been, yet wasn't. The interesting bits in my opinion, and only somebody who understands Québec French (I do) can say that, are the (I think) peeks at Montréal subcultures the director takes: ordinary building workers, young Québec working class speed freaks, and gangsters (of a type, including what is supposed to be yet another stereotype of Italian mafioso, neither very real, nor very credible). The plot is of course irrelevant, but so it is for zillions of other directors, that hardly matters. The film fails because it is a patchworks of unrelated tiles. There just is no line joining all these fragments, and the lead actor, not bad in itself, does not manage to be the joining factor. This movie therefore splinters into many shards, rather imaginative shards, but broken nonetheless. Director worth watching, as he might learn, methinks.

Action film is a genre rarely seen in Quebec film. Last year was for Bon Cop Bad Cop and now Nitro. A young man want's to safe the life of his wife. He has to get lost of money and a heart for a transplant. Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge is excellent and does most of his stunts. Lucie Laurier plays a woman with a attitude, don't step on her toes. Not only is she beautiful but she gives a great performance. There is lots of action in this low budget film, compare to the Die Hard series, but you'll be impress to see what they do in this picture. The story also as moments of drama and emotion. A very enjoyable film. Go see it. I think American producers would like to buy the script and do a remake. If they do , don't forget Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge, he makes this movie believable.
