CRITICS/QUOTES
Director’s quote:
“Where is the sense in advocating democracy and humanism in the face of corporate mismanagement, humiliation, capital punishment and torture, if one is to condone a public lynching such as this one, regardless of whether the victim works for "The Man". In my film, I chose to replace Man, the individual, at the heart of the story.”
Press reviews:
Screen Daily: “Blending emotional suspense with gripping action sequences, writer-director Lucas Belvaux is in equal or better form than he displayed in his acclaimed Trilogy. ”
Marianne: “A lucid and disenchanted parable on the exorbitant and obscene power of money.”
Les Cahiers du cinéma : “The Story is extraordinary.”
Positif : « A concision that echoes its title… radical, lapidary, the promise of a raw narrative which will leave no one unscathed. »
