    Action, drama, thriller with fantastic performances

    The rating (6.7) doesn't justify this beautiful movie.

    Take Jason Bourne and John wick and add alot of emotions and drama and realness.

    The action is very raw, the suspense keeps you on the edge from start to finish, some twists here and there and the performances are the real treat here.

    Specially from the main character. How he is Introduced and where he gets at the end of movie is understandable. Unlike many big action/thriller (big budget) movies, you actually understand every characters decision making. Even those who don't get much time for character development.

    For a Netflix movie, it can't get much better. We need more of this Netflix. Budget well spent.

    Bourne Identity & Taken & Nobody, French style

    I've always read imdb user reviews before, and this is my first time reviewing a movie, because this French movie AKA on Netflix surely deserves a review (there's none yet at the time of my writing).

    AKA is like a combination of some well produced movies that come to mind such as the Bourne series, Taken, Nobody, John Wick, Heat etc. Heroes who should just have been left alone. Heroes with good souls who have to decide who to protect, whose orders to follow, and what to fight for.

    There's a lot of action, fighting & shooting. But these are not the mindless kind of fighting. The script is not bad with unexpected stories and characters. The action hero is played by a French actor Alban Lenoir I have never heard of, who manages to play the role just as well as Matt Damon, Liam Neeson, or Keanu Reeves would have played had they acted in this movie.

    I give it 9/10. If I were the movie editor, some scenes could have been cut out and were not necessary, to reach a wider audience. Other than that, most of the characters were well played; the action scenes were done very well; the script was clever with an appropriate overlay of effective music soundtrack.

    Honestly surprised by how good this movie was. I watched it with a low expectation, so just pretend that you have not read my review, don't know anything about this movie, and watch it with no expectation or idea about the movie.

    AKA Great and brilliant action thriller gangster movie

    This is a great and brilliant thriller action gangster movie. Great plot and acting there isn't a single wasted scene in this movie plenty great action scenes.

    It,s the same great actor as Netflix movie Lost Bullet it,s kind of the french Jason Statham.

    The movie is entertaining,fun and I think it is very original also. The cinematography, locations and scenery are interesting and different.

    The film's atmosphere and pace are also terrific. The story is plausible but something too similar in relation to this kind of movies. But the fight and actions scenes are beautifully and originally structured for a action movie.

    There are a lot,s of cool action and fight scenes sequences in this movie. It,s a great and entertaining action thriller movie.

    Rolling a 7 "the hard way"

    Dalibert is no stranger to this genre of action film. He could have taken the easy route and strung together a series of action tropes to move things along. He knows how to do it. He has done it before. And well. But this time he rolled the dice on a much harder bet. This time he teased out the characterizations to keep the viewer hooked. This is most definitely NOT some sort of clever hodge-podge of different movies. The closest analog is MAN ON FIRE 2004, which also relies heavily on the interaction between a hardened killer and a young boy. This may not be a film for everyone, but the more time you spend with it, the more interesting it gets. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer." Please check out my list "167+ Nearly-Perfect Movies (with the occasional Anime or TV miniseries) you can/should see again and again (1932 to the present))

    Intense Action-Drama From The Creators' Team Of "Lost Bullet"

    AKA French action movie on Netflix created by the team Lost Bullet. The story follows an undercover agent who must face an emotional test when he infiltrates a gang of criminals and unexpectedly forms a close bond with the boss's son.

    This is an action-drama movie with well-written plot details that successfully blend moral principles with the role of a killer spy. Despite Alban Lenoir not having a traditionally handsome appearance, his acting skills in this movie are much more impressive compared to his previous work in "Lost Bullet." His intense solo action scenes are still present even though the movie emphasizes more on the drama aspect. Overall, this is a highly recommended streaming movie that should not be missed.
