The Translators

With a script and under the direction of Régis Roinsard (who was also in charge of the fun "Populaire", available on Apple TV), "The Translators" is an exciting thriller based on a social criticism of the publishing world: how voracious companies have no love for literature as art but only for books as products that generate money for them. The whole movie is full of intrigue and the script generates a story that progresses with a great rhythm that does not let you rest at any time. The problem is perhaps the end, because of all the characters who make us interested, we do not know its outcome, only the protagonist and antagonist. Definitely recommendable, and now that it was finally released in Mexico (it's a 2019 film) it's an excellent opportunity to enjoy contemporary French cinema.

Literary thriller that misses a cast of international actors with poorly constructed characters. The plot starts out interesting, but the development is lost in a disastrous guessing game that is boring, because the ending is too predictable. Good music by Yun Miyake.
