Venue: Quartier Latin Cinema
Event: Montreal World Film Festival "World Film Concern" unit
Although the whole film reveals a strong local African atmosphere, the influence of Hollywood gangster films on it Also very obvious. Aside from the similarity between the story itself and its predecessors such as "Scarface", "American Gangster" and even "The Godfather", many classic gangster films can be seen from the film's flashbacks and coarse-grained photography style.
Of course, without considering the "shadow effect" of other films, if you just look at this film individually, 2 hours is still very easy to pass.
Conclusion: It is a very "good-looking" movie.
