Surely this must represent some kind of pinnacle in the career of French director Jacques Audiard.  I mean, how much better can he get? To be part of a room full of people suppressing the urge to vomit (during the murder scene) may not be everyone’s “Tasse de thé”, but it did make for a bonding experience… and from that point on, there could be no questioning the seriousness of Malik’s plight. He did well to survive.

Happy ending? Kind of.
