Review of Exit

Exit (I) (2000)
6/10
Interesting but confusing
26 May 2002
Visually, this movie is a landmark in french cinema. One's got to add that it isn't usual to find a movie like this in Luc Besson's productions. But "Exit" is a reality, and sometimes an interesting movie. But the inevitable flaws of a first work arrive by means of the confusing last acts, just before a final plot twist that nearly salvages them. As I said, visuals keep this from descending into the hole of banality, but the movie has too many dialogue and some suddenly appearing characters that we end up not knowing who they are. Anyway, for those who find it a little bit interesting, it requires a second viewing. Se7en and Silence of the Lambs-influenced fare, but some originality saves it.
