Or when Thomas Gilou was a true director, before he became lousy in LA VERITE SI JE MENS like craps. It is also the best role for Samy Naceri, an actor whom not so many audiences like, even those from the suburb ghettos. Here, he is true, authentic, in this pure tough, moving drama which is for me underrated, and announces LA HAINE one year later. It belongs to the ghetto, suburb revenge plots, sp typical from France. It is not a comedy, beware, but with fun moments, such as the horse abduction, very unusual, off beat, funny. No, it's really a worth seeing feature, better than expected. Poignant, engrossing, if you dare watch it despite the plot.
