Just like 99% of people who are going to watch this, I was also drawn in by Olga. I knew the movie was spoken in French before watching, but had no idea Olga was so fluent. I thought I'd be able to practice my language skills a bit. Usually, with movies like this. A non native speaks a little slower, has simple dialogues & the subtitles linger that fraction longer. This wasn't really the case for me. I didn't realize Olga holds dual citizenship (French/Ukrainian ) before watching. So, because I'm rustier than I thought. I found myself reading more than just some words. I almost had to read everything which took too much of the cinematography away. Such beautiful scenery I couldn't enjoy without pausing... *thank god for streaming, lol*
The movie itself was nothing special. Just your basic "how far would you go for family?" or "you've messed with the wrong bloodline (Taken)" type of thing. It's probably a 4-4.5. But Olga rounds it up to a solid 5. She has talent, that's a given. Just a shame the lead role in something other than the mainstream English speaking movies. Won't give her the coverage she deserves.
