Fast, intense, virtuosic camera and editing, keeping a formula situation alive and kicking
Point Blank (2010)

Not to be confused with the semi-classic 1967 movie of the same title with Lee Marvin, this is not a remake or an echo of that. What this French action thriller is fits another category–the non-stop kinetic run from the bad-guys film, which has become a kind of staple. Think the Bourne movies, or a couple later Liam Neeson films, where the hero gets himself into a terrible situation that requires running and running and running.

And that’s enough, in a way, because you can’t stop looking. There are no lulls. In fact, some of the moments have such kinetic surprise to them they deserve study. Your stomach will turn. Don’t expect a big rationale. Don’t even quite expect to care for anything except that our main man, and his wife, survive the ordeal. There are crosses and double-crosses. There is horrid abuse of women which I could do without (the rationale might just be the perils of Pauline kind of thing, saving her with the handsome male to the rescue, but it’s just plain abusive). There is one female cop who is a great tough archetype. And lots of bad violent men.

But, truly, none of this is meant to matter. You just grab onto the handles and don’t let go. It’s really really well made, visually, the camera-work and editing taking front seat. I’d see it on the biggest screen you can, since that’s where it’s all at.

Point Blank
The opening scene of this French thriller sees an injured man being chased by two men with guns; just as it looks as though they have caught him he is struck by a motorcycle. He is taken to hospital where his pursuers make another attempt on his life; this time he is saved by trainee nurse Samuel Pierret. This turns out to be a dangerous move for Samual as soon after his pregnant wife, Nadia, is kidnapped by the injured man’s brother… it turns out he saved is wanted criminal Hugo Sartet. Samual manages to get Hugo out of the hospital but the police are closing in on them rapidly. The planned exchange Hugo for Nadia doesn’t go as planned then before they can arrange another meeting Hugo’s brother is killed and Nadia is held by another far more dangerous group; a squad of corrupt cops who will do anything to ensure that their involvement in the murder of a wealthy business man stays hidden… including killing honest cops and eliminating anybody who knows what they did.

At around eighty minutes in length this is hardly a long film and it seems even shorter as the action barely lets up for a moment. Apart from a couple of establishing scenes featuring Sam and Nadia it is all action as Sam and Hugo flee their pursuers and ultimately turn the tables on them. The action feels very real and painful; it is also quite shocking at times. This is helped by the fact that protagonist Sam, excellently played by Gilles Lellouche isn’t a tough guy action man; he is just an ordinary man driven by extraordinary circumstances. The rest of the cast also perform well making the characters believable. Overall a nice taut thriller that shows you don’t need car chases and exploding helicopters to make an exciting film… I’d certainly recommend it.

These comments are based on watching the film in French with English subtitles.
