Very well written and made and incredibly nervous. Duris turns out a most angst-ridden performance. Audiard shows his knack for combining tense crime stuff with persuasive character drama, which not a lot of filmmakers can do. Some resent its debt to James Toback's "Fingers" but I like it just as much.

Romain Duris is amazing here. The film is full of moments of insight, interest and intensity as Audiard takes material that could have easily come off as obvious but manages to take it in such a direction that it is instead intelligent and emotionally compelling. Great stuff.

Meandering, frustrating film is saddled from the outset with an unlikable (and inscrutable) leading character, which makes it difficult to become wholly invested in the film as a whole, despite the fine performances (Arestrup in particular is a delight in his brief scenes as Duris' father). Beautifully crafted however, with scenes of sudden, jarring violence particularly well staged and executed.

Jacques Audiard is without a doubt my favorite contemporary French director. Here, like in A Prophet, you find the same richness of gritty tone, choice music selection, and unique characterization. Audiard's heroes are forced to struggle through their ugly environments to attain the innocence and peace that they know rests in their souls. They are not good men, but on some level they desire to be just that, and their journeys are utterly captivating. The piano stuff in this is just wonderful.
