The influence being the Belgian thrillers I have watched lately. And compared to them, this would be really weak. But I am not trying to compare those (though it would be nice to see a Belgian remake of this movie ... and why shouldn't they do that?). This french thriller is nicely done and has good actors.
Still too much cliché and as another reviewer wrote, you'd be excused for thinking you are back in the 80s when you read the plot of the movie. But of course there is more to it than meets the eye, which almost elevates the movie to another level. Unfortunately it stays with the "almost" and does not take that leap. Still if "crime" is your thing, you might wanna try this out. You could do a lot worse.
