Sous titres français SVPL ! De Niro, grand monsieur, se répète dans les rôles qu'on lui propose maintenant un peu tous pareils, J. Lawrence fait son petit bonhomme de chemin, encore fort jeune. Le film a d'excellents moments dynamiques entourés de quelques lourdeurs qui l'empêchent de décoller vraiment. On y croit, puis plus, puis oui. Déception pcq cela aurait pu être un très bon film. Pourquoi cette référence à la scène du test de Divergent ? Sujet intéressant, bons acteurs, scénario ou réalisateur ?!. La sauce ne prend pas à 100%, il manque un petit rien. Plaisir mitigé. Dommage. 4-

I don't get it why all the hate over this movie. To be sincere it's one of the rare cases when movies actually got some soul in them. If you enjoy reality why you wouldn't enjoy this. I would say that the movie is highly underrated. Yes it has some small plot holes but it sends a strong message to take away in comparation with many other movies with better grades.
