Winocour directs beautifully, Schoenaerts acts and acts, and only the writing pulls this down
Disorder (2015)Alice Winocour’s thriller set in upper class France is filled with anxiety, and is filmed very smartly to increase that stress without resorting to pyrotechnics. Quietly, especially because of the edgy psychological performance by Matthias Schoenaerts, we feel the anxiety of an ex-soldier fighting PTSD and still doing private high brow security work.
The setting is interesting but the plot is thin. This can work for the film, which depends on lots of quiet moments to punch up the drama when it occurs. The direction is really good, with some simple strategies at play. Example—when our main character, who is guarding someone off in the distance, is sensing danger, his eyes flit around, he stiffens up and walks and look, but the one thing the camera doesn’t do is show us the person he’s protecting. In the dark, we worry, and we don’t know if the danger is real or if he’s just too high strung.
Seeing the inside of a high level security detail is nice, and it’s handled with good realism. The whole movie, in fact, depends on a simple believability that typical Hollywood versions would ramp up, and it works.
The big downside here is the writing. There isn’t enough to the overall plot after all (and Schoenaerts can’t do everything). And some of the dialog is unlikely or a big out off kilter. Sucked into the mis-en-scene, you can go with it, at least until the long stretch at the end in the house, when you do wish it hadn’t trapped itself into a series of well worn ideas.
The last several seconds of the movie do show that the director/writer is capable of more than you’ll find here. It might be unexplained, but it leaves at least still immersed as you leave the film’s finely rendered world.
..things not always ‘better’ across the pond..
This is a foreign action film that although it has a couple of very decent lead actors (two true favorites).. it really goes nowhere because like so many similar American films, it has little meat to the actual story, and nowhere near any the amount of action sequences necessary to fill the void. And the English sub-titled version is an absolute joke. Not knowing how to speak the language, would not be a disadvantage, as you could be guessing at most all of the dialogue, and still do a substantially better job than the captions shown with this screen version. So how we complain in this country about how European films are invariably always sooo much better.. well here with this production, the opposite is confirmed.
