Another one heartbreaking France movie. It really break heart when you see lost France. This country is no longer France. Is more like France caliphate.. This is how liberals want to destroy countries. They are making multiculti mess and support illegal uncontrollable migration. They hate simple ppl and middle class worker. Of course liberals and leftists have their mouth’s full of beautiful words but these all lies. Marseille citizens know that well. Under old sleepy lying Joe administration major U.S. cities will be like Marseille, divided by crime zones controlled by mobs this time not from Italy or Ireland but Mexican cartels

[Netflix] Convincing crime film that shows the chaos of the neighborhoods controlled by drug traffickers in Marseille. It successfully balances the action with the social perspective based on real events, although it is somewhat lukewarm in its ethical position, justifying the actions outside the law of the police without reflecting too much on what are the reasons why these lawless neighborhoods exist.

Like a parking lot in the south, it's gritty but maybe tries to cover too much? A fascinating movie based on no-go zones for the cops in Marseille, France, and all the more so because recent news about these areas is proving how accurate the film is. Thematically similar to the Danish film Shorta / Enforcement, the film succeeds thanks to its taut directing and strong cast (Gilles Lelouche, Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Karim Leklou are stand-outs). The film probably bit off more than I could chew, though, when it comes to the stories (there are 2 - 3 movies lurking in here), but this kept me awake the whole time I was jet lagged, so that's gotta mean something.

Great movie.yes, people, this is the sad situation about some neighborhoods in France. Not sure what is possible to do at this point.
