I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Let us make things clear: that film is NOT to be watched with your girlfriend; NOT to be watched by former Air Traffic controllers and NOT to be watched on Sundays and religious holidays. You come home at 8 p.m., you have worked hard, you are dog-tired - that is the perfect atmosphere to watch Sueurs. Much was said about the cinematography (great, indeed), about the actors, the desert itself. But, you know, what makes this a real gem is its perfect balance. "Arty", manic moments mix with furious action, greed turns into violence, west transforms into east and back again. Can't say there is much more to the film than pure style, though.

I'm always happy when a new film comes out that is NOT American. i just read the name jean hugues anglade and "sweat"- then i grabbed it! this is another fine and weird role by anglade, who i love since his great performance in "killing zoe". as someone else posted, SWEAT reminds indeed a bit of "wages of fear" and "mad max"- but that was the only minor flaw 4 me. there is no hero, just villains and, unlike American movies nowadays u actually see men smoking cigarettes- and they are enjoying it! just like i expect from a french movie hehe. great cinematography, great atmosphere (marokko desert), great ending. Vive la France! :-D

I began watching this movie with my girl-friend. And after 5 minutes I was alone.I succeed to stay until the end. It has been a painful experience.I liked jean hugues anglade, but I think that he needed to eat, as us, and thus he accepted to play in this movie. There are only 5 characters, and the rest could be called 'art' or something that I couldn't express, but that I didn't understand at all.The only worst movie I saw was crash, but I'm pretty sure now that I have enough experience to watch it successfully again.good luck!! ;o)

I think critics of this film have the wrong approach. It isn't highbrow, or even pretending to be, it may to some be a waste of good actors, but I couldn't care less because I think it is great. There are times when I just want to switch off and be entertained by a mindless action movie, and this one not only delivers, but is pleasantly far from mindless.We do see the robbery in flashes during the opening credits, the airport crew get shot and the flatbed driving away from the empty plane. On a side note I thought the music here was excellent. There are four main characters who have pulled off the job - the organiser, the driver, the mechanic and the gunman, all of whom are unhinged in some way and whose worst sides come out as events conspire to stop them making their deadline for converting the gold into cash.But the biggest character is the desert itself. It's beautifully shot, really getting across the effect of the harsh environment on the crew as they begin to bicker and fall out. You know it will descend into violence but it is fun getting there - although the characters are shallow the mind play between them is still very interesting as their quirks and psychotic tendencies emerge and set each other off. I like the black humour of old French action movies so I didn't care how derivative it was here, it was good to see it again and a refreshing break from some Hollywood offerings, nor did it have their tendency to moralise or patronise. You won't have to be Sherlock to figure out what's coming but it's fun finding out and there were still a few surprises.Sit back and enjoy the ride.
