For me, the French HEAT is still not for now.... This movie ending is closer to PLUS BELLE LA VIE TV show atmosphere than a masterpiece such as HEAT. Once more, director Jeremy Guez deceives me after his awful KANUN, for which my expectations were so great. The harder I fell !!!! The problem is not the directing nor the cast, but the ending? Why, why giving such a lousy ending for a movie supposed to be gritty, dark, bleak, violent? Why? The series BRI also produced by Guez was nearly OK, but something was missing too.... Sorry folks, I grew up with directors such a Jean-Pierre Melville and Sam Peckinpah with whom you could never have such lousy endings...Never. For the rest, I admit that 's not a bad film, on the contrary, the hoodlums are very professional, and I love that. The action scenes quite good, fast paced. But why such a f...ending like this? Now, I wait for THE QUIET ONES, starring Reda Kated, and supposed to be released next year. I hope that for this one, I will not fall "from a cliff" too. Because after watching the trailer, my hopes, expectations, are as high as the Empire State Building.
