Work – Fast & Coke
Sara Bellaiche, captain at Toulouse's DIPJ, investigates a go-fast related to the murder of two teenagers, which Richard Cross, cop at the 36th in Paris, takes care of. Forced to collaborate to find the murderer and stop this bloody go-fast, Sara and Richard, with diametrically opposite methods, find themselves plunged into a race against the haletante watch on Spanish and French roads.
In known terrain, Olivier Marchal adapts the novel Trafic Mortels by former police commander Pierre Pouchairet and delivers a viril polar and nihilist visually chiaded on the great banditry.
The chase races and other gunfighters are as haletant as they are violent, the plot is well tied (several surveys intersect) despite cliché characters (but no less striking), the tension is permanent and the casting, led by Sofia Essaïdi (the revelation of the film), does not lack conviction (second roles included).
From action cinema without concession or time dead that travels a lot (Toulouse, Paris, Perpignan, Carcassonne, etc.), smells like powder and overflows with testosterone!
IMAGE – Wild crew
Splendid, this UHD HDR10+ image that allows you to appreciate the chandelier of photography and the beauty of the landscapes of the Pyrenees displays a definition of punching, biting details, a dense colorimetric palette (between cold and bloody red hues), flashing contrasts and very dynamic light sources.
SON – That's smart.
With a high density for lossy (a Dolby Digital Plus encoding) and not stinging on the use of the LFE channel during the go-fast, this soundtrack that perfectly ensures immersion is generous at the back (road traffic, urban life) and widely open at the front. As for voices (the multilingual track is to be preferred in a matter of authenticity), they naturally incorporate the rest of the mix.
CONCLUSION – Too much?
Supplied with muscular A/V services, Premium Video will make you addicted to this nervous action polar that undeniably bears the Marchal leg. We know the song but we don't tire of it, the risk of overdose is avoided!
