Like sex with a drunkard, [spoiler] there's 90 minutes of struggling to reach a quick happy ending. [/spoiler]

Making a film about suffering is easy, all you need to do is take a tragic situation (like a fire fighter who's severely burned on the job) and film how difficult it is for him afterwards. It helps if he's married and has children. Twins. Then have at least one person cry in every other scene. Et voilà.

The actors here did a stupendous job (especially Pierre Niney as the lead), but the script has absolutely zero surprises, which makes this film less heroic than the man it's about.
