Quite original with a lot of good actors Pitty It got spoiled by Olivier gourmet acting like he was marlon Brando.

Feels strongly like 'mon oncle d'Amérique': several parallel trajectories, tied together by a scientific caution about the fate of mankind (the archeologist )... can't help thinking that this has to do with the director having acted in Mon Oncle d'Amerique... disappointing.

Training Day meets Engrenages... very good! The movie never takes sides.

What was Isabelle Huppert doing in this embarrassment of a flick ? Doesn't act in many US movies so I got curious ... stay away , people! it is not Heaven's Gates!! Cheap horror tricks not worthy of a Z series teenager horror movie (I miss Freddy Kruger!)

Mel's sarcastic tone could already be found in Payback a few years ago. Enjoyable like a candy! Bonus : A Clint Eastwood impersonation by Dr Mel

Great acting, so painful... excruciatingly painful

Michel Piccoli died last week. Someone said : « Piccoli brought tragedy in the bourgeoisie » ... right on dot !

I also find David Caruso quite obnoxious (but this is not news.. cf what Barbet Schroder wrote about him for "kiss of Death') ; I first watched all the episodes of CSI Las Vegas and became a big fan... afterwards I switched to Miami and liked it better actually : it was a bit 'dirty Latin' as opposed to puritan WASP in Las Vegas. The contrast is the most striking if one compares the 2 female leads : Cath Willows, the ice-cold virago, always lecturing witnesses and suspects on what is proper or not, typical German-Lutheran... and in "Miami", the super cute, petite Emily Procter, a sweet hand in an iron fist... but the attraction of Miami (colours, glamour) is getting definitely spoiled by Mr Caruso's 3rd class acting. Miss Procter saves the day!
