Notre jour viendra

Uma explosão emocional amoral, mas sensível, de humor negro, psicologicamente tensa, pulsante por dentro, reforçada por desempenhos energéticos tanto do extrovertido Cassel como do introvertido Barthelemy. Um desabafo anárquico de feridas do passado nos «espetadores inocentes», levando aos limites da lei. Assassinos Natos de Stone sem alma e relevância podem ficar silenciosamente invejados.

Did I understand well, that gingers aren’t human? (02/09/2012)

Redhead rebellion. A schizoid ride that begins as a black comedy and ends as a pure figment of insanity - misanthropy, terror, the instinct of death. A searing counterpoint to contemporary "social" idylls, and yet a film that sees into xenophobia and social segregation surprisingly deeply. The performances of the central couple are inhuman, the direction absolutely epic. Gavras is a man with a fantasy in a completely different dimension than one would expect. I wouldn't really consider calling a film about two sociopaths terrorizing the innocent “romantic" in the truest sense of the word (a fictional space of escape from reality, not milking the viewer). Although that Rachmaninoff guy says in the introduction that this is going to be something monstrously beautiful. And it is. Top 5 of 2010. (29/11/2010)

Such normal red-faced assassins, or red-haired anarchists on the warpath against the established unredeemed order. Whether it's a sociological probe into the origins of xenophobia, a study of the effects of bullying, or simply an insight into the sick mind of Mr Gavras, it's above all fascinating. Disturbingly fascinating. (30/12/2012)
