AKA Netflix Review (No spoiler)

If you have previously watched “Lost Bullet”, you may have a new perspective on this Netflix action movie, as it is directly created by the same team. Alban Lenoir , who starred in “Lost Bullet” as the lead actor, also stars in this movie. Although he may not have a conventionally handsome appearance, his professional experience as a stuntman has enabled him to continuously improve his acting skills. In this movie, he also participated in the screenplay writing as he did in “Lost Bullet”. This action movie emphasizes selling the drama with a plot that delves deeper into its dimensions than the basic storyline.

The movie begins with the mysterious mission of the protagonist, Adam Franco, who pretends to be a journalist and is captured by the criminals. This is the initial mystery that raises questions about whether he is a good or bad person. This puzzle is used in conjunction with the disguised story of being in the Mafia gang to gather information about the criminal who intends to destroy Paris. However, he becomes emotionally attached to the boss’s son, making this mission even more complicated. This creates a romantic drama that adds depth to the story, and  Alban Lenoir‘s natural performance convinces the audience that he has a strong sense of morality. in a short time the audience can believe that his character has more integrity than what is shown at the beginning of the movie.

For those who think that the plot of a killer changing their mind is not new, this film delves deeper into the life story of the villain. It is no secret that plots involving French targets being attacked by Islamic groups are not new, so the film incorporates a deeper theory and links the stories of all the characters from the opening scene. The story is revealed gradually, leaving the audience to wonder if what they see throughout the film is really true or not. Before the climactic scene where the truth of the hidden story is revealed, there is a heart-stopping scene that showcases Alban Lenoir’s talent in writing and playing the intense drama. This is impressive compared to other stuntmen who often struggle with this type of role.

 

Compared to the action scenes in this movie may not be as intense as in Lost Bullet because it emphasizes more on strong drama. However, the film still has well-suited action scenes for streaming works, despite not having a large production budget. Many scenes in the film showcase the protagonist, Adam Franco, who is a mysterious undercover agent who works for the government throughout his life. The film does not forget to include the background details of his impressive skills, making him appear reliable. The character’s life has both depth and importance, making the entire story more reasonable and thoughtful. It is thought that if this film becomes popular, it could be an original Netflix movie that creates a sequel about the mysterious and anonymous French undercover agent.

 

This is an action-drama movie with well-written plot details that successfully blend moral principles with the role of a killer spy. Despite Alban Lenoir not having a traditionally handsome appearance, his acting skills in this movie are much more impressive compared to his previous work in “Lost Bullet.” His intense solo action scenes are still present even though the movie emphasizes more on the drama aspect. Overall, this is a highly recommended streaming movie that should not be missed.
