Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Excellent, smart action film.
Amateur movie with Big budget
I first notice her in the movie La Beuze in which she shows funny kissing skills. Then, recently i just picked her glamour pictures for her 12th Marrakech International Film Festival Photocall in 2012 and it's the instant hard-on : this fine brunette wears a exciting see trough with black leather jacket, full red lips on a red carpet ! In addition, i notice that she is again a look alike of my famous coworker who was already the inspiration for Crystal Klein (#39), Laure Sinclair (#43), Rebecca Hall (#75), Jade Nile (#89) and the one shot [12] Nomi Malone ! Sure you will tell me that they are all different but that is the proof that feminine beauty has multiples angles Here, Zoe plays a no feeling, opportunist model who does cheap erotic photos and who is offered better opportunities by making adult movies. As it's a french drama, the story is the expected treatment : drugs, bad deals, exploitation At the end, it's a tragic, bloody shoot them up It's very limited, as dull as Zoé tells it too, but the cast is cool with Romain, Maginel and real porn-stars (i have recognized Olivia (#79) but not Laure). As for Zoe, she exposes her cleavage for a few seconds only and dressed not sexy! So it's not really hot but you can watch it if nothing else, all the more it happens in Nice that is indeed a real jewel city ! NB : the movie opens on the 14th July and when you see the big crowd everywhere, you still wonder as a French how a mad truck could go there years later with all security forces on alert ????
View MoreToo bad, that not many people have seen this movie. It just happened that I lived in Paris when the movie came out - and it was the right movie at the right time - exactly reflecting certain feelings I had. It's hard to explain a certain mood to others, for me this movie was just perfect ... if you get the chance to watch - take it ... maybe you will like it as much as I did.

A bunch of young people on their way to hell, a tragedy with the human scope of Shakespeare, and without the wordly moral common sense he was bound to. A great film encompassed by the unstoppable desire of the characters, where it seems everything is going out of control. The score by Bruno Coulais underlines it, like a regretful and ambiguous complaint, suggesting the tragic beauty of young people being consumed.One of the boldest, best french films of the last years.
View MoreThis is a gem of a "noir" movie showing various character in a self-destructive descent into hell. This is not really a portrayal of the porn business, but much more. A young guy is fascinated by two poseurs taking snapshots and agrees to introduce to them a girl, Zoé, he watches from afar. The two rich brats accept him as Zoé's "chaperon", but they soon turn her to the porn business. This could be sub-Tarantino territory, but Dahan actually fleshes out his characters, introduces real humanity and, if we know this will all end in tragedy, the "how" remains fascinating. This is great, sincere stuff.
