The perfect moment... Why do you need money if you have no one to share it with?
Recently, in France it has become quite relevant, if not fashionable, to make films on the topic of the day. I remember a similar theme has already been raised in the films Argument of the Weakest (2006) and Modern Robin Hood (2011). But more fully, this issue was covered in the TV series The Living and the Dead (2010) with Robinson Stevenen, quite similar to this film on the script. People are tired of pompous glossy heroes. In their place comes the undisguised truth of life, with all the ensuing consequences. After all, life in the West is not as good as we think, and there are also enough problems. Factories and factories closing everywhere. Unemployment, strikes and all incoming immigrants are now an integral part of modern France. Perhaps due to its relevance, there the picture took the 5th place in fees in 2012.
Interestingly, the title of this film, the best conveys the state in which the main characters are. This is not an ordinary crime movie. It is a drama with a moral, social and political background. The multilayer of which is revealed only in the course of action. The heroes of the film are not gangsters, but simple hard workers, forced from despair to take up arms. But once you step on this dangerous path, there is no way back. And unfairly earned money, no one has ever brought happiness. I must say that the actors are all out here for 100. Clovis Cornijac, Matilda Senje and Ivan Attal express emotions on screen very dramatically. But especially I would mention Clovis Corniac. The diversity of his roles - from purely farcical comedies, to horror films, dramas and police films, sometimes just amazes.
