A modest take on the classic revenge story, a genre to often Hollywoodized into superficial, action-driven thrillers but which shows its true merit in the hands of Verneuil and Audiard. Verneuil's understated approach is matched by Bébel's subtle, nuanced performance as Leclercq who, rather than setting out on a murderous rampage, remains cool as a fucking cucumber. I'm starting to sound like a broken record but the writing-directing-acting trio deliver yet another solid film.
