Les Misérables

De sidste 30 minutter har ætset sig fast på min nethinde, siden jeg så filmen første gang, og blev kun stærkere ved gensyn.

...a gripping experience, tense and upsetting, showing how seemingly small events, perhaps manageable in the particulars, can balloon into something out of control, like a fire exploding into a conflagration.

...a police drama set in a tough Paris suburb..

...paints an admirably uncliched portrait of banlieue life, as vibrant and diverse as that of Céline Sciamma’s Girlhood.

...tense, explosive and urgent. A powerful fiction debut from documentarian Ladj Ly.
