10/10
a superb police drama VOID of the usual clichés
1 July 2007
Warning: Spoilers
This is an excellent Police drama, of a rookie detective,his female commanding officer & other detectives, also assorted criminal types.

There is however one major difference between this film & all the others. The people here seem real, flesh & blood persons, not the usual stereotypes & none of the usual clichés.

The script does have surprises for the audience at many turns.

The acting by all is pitch perfect.

The settings are in Paris, Le Havre, & other parts of France..Being a police drama there is violence, BUT no where overly done, The only nudity are the dead victims.

We do not have the usual obligatory sex scene. There are some usages of certain words,k BUT that can not be helped.

Great film viewing for an adult audience, excellent sub-titles...
