Plot summary

Police commander Simon Weiss, head of the division that supervises Paris’s demi-monde, starts out on his nightly tour of bars, discos and strip clubs, making sure once again that the owners don’t bend the rules too far. Weiss knows he’s between a rock and hard place: it’s obvious that criminal gangs run rampant in his special domain, and even more obvious that they’re protected by higher-ups in the department.

a good 90 minutes

It's not bad, it's not great. Interesting format, similar to Collateral.

Zem and Forestier are very good, the rest of the cast a bit more random. Gives you a new perspective on the 'monde de la nuit a Paris'...

But the scenario lacks some depth and shooting at night is not easy; Philippe Lefebvre is clearly not Michael Mann even if he directs the actors pretty well.

A good change from Hollywood take on police movies. If you likes this one, check out Olivier Marchal's work, A la petite semaine and Ne le dis a personne, good French stuff!

6/10

Legit

Not a movie for prudes or those in a state of denial. I'm a former Federal LEO in the USA. I've had a Private Investigation firm for over 20 years: this is one of only a handful of films I've ever seen that portrays what it's really like to be an elite level Vice Officer in a big (1,000,000+ population) metropolitan area...and the raw reality of what goes on after-dark in the club-scene. Kudos to the Director. Very well done.

Really excellent cop thriller

The seedy underbelly of Paris by night. No gratuitous violence or extreme language helped make this a stand out film. I'd compare it with Get Carter and Crash. It really is very good - especially the ending.

Great acting by the two leads who really carry the film with the suspenseful plot. Highly recommend this.
