Review of Team Spirit

Christophe Barratier (The Chorus) and the producer Jacques Perrin (Océans) have done it again. Having not read the book that the Trader Jérôme Kerviel wrote about his true story, I can't judge if the film is well adapted but what I can say is that the director and actors have done a good job portraying a World that normally goes unseen. The characters are better than real life thanks to Athur Dupont (Chacun sa nuit)and François-Xavier Demaison (who, strange as it may seem started off in life in international finance, before becoming a successful actor and humorist). True we don't get the same emotions that we get with such a storyteller such as Martin Scorsese with his "The Wolf of Wall street", even if the two films depict a similar kind of pattern that has repeated itself, but this time in Paris, France. But we come out of the theater with a lot of food for thought and having enjoyed some good acting.
