A few days ago a French movie called "Ad Vitam" was released on Netflix. Which I just finished watching.
Storyline
The movie tells the story of a French special force officer. His name was Franck Lazareff and he worked in a department. You are out of here now. Cracks in the biggest building served as monitors. But since few days some people are coming to the house to find something. They are looking for something inside his house due to which his house is in turmoil, his wife keeps asking him why these people are coming, what is happening but he doesn't say anything, but in the meantime suddenly one day many mysterious people enter his house wearing masks and kidnap his wife and they want a thing that can see the locked thing inside her, so you can see this movie. And it remains to be seen whether our hero is able to save his wife and also who these people are.
Flaws in the Story
There are many flaws in the story of the movie. Not that the story is very well returned. The most flawed in this is that our hero could have saved his wife but no, I think the movie should be made without delaying the ending scene, there are some flaws in that too. If you remove these two things, you will still see some flaws. That is, there is no such thing as a mystery in the movie, the back story of the wife who is kidnapped and then put into the one who is going to save her, so the director and the writer thought that we will create a mystery, which in my opinion is not a mystery, I added several parts of the back story. If you don't want excitement, you could make it shorter. But I think the movie has become too lengthy. The movie saved 1 hour and 39 minutes, so if they would have removed that too, the movie would have stretched to an hour for me.
Action & Cinematic Experience
But if we keep these things positive, I liked its action scenes. The last 25 minutes, it was very intense. It has a lot of shooting, a lot of people die, a lot of things happen, there are car scenes but that's not very good either, that I would say you should go see this movie for that reason alone.
Performance & Technical Aspects
The acting of the actress is very good. The construction budget is quite good. Technically there is no fault in the movie, I just couldn't find it and another reason why I liked this movie so much.
Another thing is that French movies have a performance, a story, that's what I see, so I think more people like this kind of movie in France, but I've seen a lot of good movies like this, I've seen Hollywood, I've seen Bollywood, in that sense, I didn't like this movie much.
Final Verdict
Yes, if you want to watch an action movie to pass the time, then I can watch this movie. I would rate this movie 5.5 out of 10.
