A very slow thriller-horror (which to be fair is sort of the norm these days for the genre).But that said it's not terrible; it's really nicely shot with rich colors of the French countryside, the acting is good enough to keep the interest going and the ending is pretty good. I find it funny how some reviewers complain that too many parts are in French, like really? Complaining about it being too many French-speaking parts in a movie set in France is like complaining about the water being too wet.But I guess they either don't know how to read or how to put on the subtitles, which says more about them than it does this movie.Anyway like I was saying, a movie with a bunch of positives but that still falls just a bit short with some unfulfilled potential; the script could have done with some improvement.That said I wouldn't recommend anyone against watching it, unless they are looking for a fast-paced thriller I guess which this is not.

Welcome to the Road Games. Something no one will be saying in this movie and it wouldn't be appropriate. It is a road movie though and it does a really good job in taking turns, if you know what I mean. You have good actors in this and they really elevate the movie and the characters they are putting out there.You know something is not right, but what could it be? Even if you figure most of it out, before it is revealed, the joy is in the ride (no pun intended). Beautifully shot and nicely edited, the tension rises and is even more crushing if you haven't read anything about this. It also has no relation to an 80s movies with the same title. I even think in France they had another title for this overall. Whatever the case: This is a fine example of a good road thriller

i'm all for non-commercial indie flicks and this one just blew me away. it kept me guessing until the end which is not something i can say about most movies these days.it starts a bit slow but the creepy rural french shots along with the music might just make you forget about it. Good editing though it could have been better and i loved the the protagonist and his shady backstory with his best friend and girl. He and Veronique might just be made for each other. And with that ending i do agree with everyone who says this is a great hitchcock tribute.

This film came to me as a total surprise! I wasn't so sure what to expect but it was intriguing and kept me hooked until the end.I really needed to know the ending! The best part of the film is the ensemble acting.Outstandding performances, especially Frederic Pierrot is definitely the strong point of the film. The film turned into a smart psychological thriller from a sweet beginning.I keep thinking about it. I don't think it's a perfect film but it really keeps making you think.By submitting this review you are agreeing to the terms laid out in our Copyright Statement.
