Meer oor hierdie fliek

On December 24, 1994, when four heavily armed terrorists from the Algerian Armed Islamic Group hijacked an Air France plane bound for Paris at Algiers' airport, the 227 passengers on board seemed destined for tragedy. After hours of tireless negotiations the plane was granted permission to leave only to head to M arseille for refueling. Mindfully avoiding politics and emphasizing only the events themselves, The Assault weaves together the violent and claustrophobic onboard drama, with backstories of the tough SWAT officer and father Thierry (Vincent Elbaz), the determined jihadist from the slums of Algiers (Aymen Saidi), and an overly ambitious French Interior Ministry worker.

While The Assault is very intense and GIGN coming in, i did not like the almost completely grey movie. The English in it, i could tell it was added in, some of the peoples lips were of and the way they spoke is not how you would speak. Good movie but the English was getting to me.

This is an excellent movie. Good story, good actors and very good photography. The only awfull thing is the english dubbing. I'll buy it with the original French audio.

I love this. It shows you that when you get wasted it can get to were you can't remember anything......
