Dupontel is always a sensitive, intelligent, funny, crazy and sometimes angry cinema. I was no fan more than that of goodbye the idiots, even if I had spent a pleasant moment, Goodbye up there too, these last two films made me spend a nice moment but not enough striking. In fact I really like Albert, he is one of the few who dares to be sensitive and do the staging, so even if I find his old films a little on the side I never really wanted to hit him, because after all, every time it's well done and it's not so bad.
This time, with Second Round, I think he is waiting for a real form of maturity and it works much better for me. So if the film remains very close to his usual style, he dares here to face a subject much more difficult than usual, it is more serious and straightforward. Albert exposes himself a little more to the image of his character on a very important social subject.
Indeed if the character is double like its title it is not a coincidence, Albert no longer seems to want to run away by finally launching a real little missile on the company with this film that does badly good and reminds, that we must never give up. I wait for the next one with a certain impatience, because it is not very far, to make films that dare to put a head blow as in his youth but with this time, much more maturity in these subjects.
