Despite some great performances and an exciting plot, Hors la loi often seems like it chose the easy way out, especially when it comes to production value. On top of that, it never caught my attention and I had to google the revolution in order to fully understand it...

Bouchareb's straightforward narrative provides uninspiring moments all around, while the plot maintains the tension until the very end. Its Oscar nomination seems exaggerated.

Nothing that hasn't been done 100 times before, and better. The acting, especially, is uninspired.
