Review derails. Largo Winch: Le prix de l’argent (Largo Winch: The Price of Money in literal English.) – 46 minutes.

A computer game Largo Winch: Empire Under Threat is ideal implementation of conception in all incarnations of Largo Winch. A mighty and an intricate storyline and incredible personalities in characters in main hero’s team though they originate from TV series, which were in broadcasting back then in early zeroes.

I didn’t complete a first issue of comics. I was familiar with Jean-Van Hamme’s stories before and his approach was alike to Latin American telenovelas and he doesn’t think on making story elaborated what turns to confuses in plots. That style was in latter listed issues of Largo Winch.

In about a first movie, I was excited by subtle storyline and breathtaking, living and realistic all kind of action. It’s sequel only deprived in a good script what was happening in process. I respectively couldn’t care on the rest even on a skydiving fight which was done in reality. But Largo Winch II could be forgettable and I actually desired a third movie until accidental finding out it’s existence not so far.

 

I’m not superstitious. Nevertheless it looks that never trust to sequels without numbers is always truthful. Technically, Largo Winch-III was made solid and with creativity. Action is better than any contemporary Hollywood movie as Deadpool and Wolverine from a last example, which included another hallmark of modern American cinema in a god-awful CGI. However, fights of Largo Winch: Le prix de l’argent is not for telling to people around the campfire. Almost without for causing an excitement. The actors do their roles except a scene when Tomer Sisley didn’t react on sudden attack by taser knuckle on wife of killed his worker. Probably, it could be other shot and therefore it’s guilt of editor. Never mind. Because a storyline revealed it’s overall terrible in less than ten minutes.

 

I can accept a stop of motorcycle by knife for possible. I can’t when Largo uses thos transport for covering himself from bullets. A top notch of unexplained was that he killed all mercenaries and a lead hero hugs lost conscience his son by both sitting on a backseat while a jeep to that time drives out of edge and falls in water and Largo emerges but without his child somehow. It’s asking between filmmakers’ devotion into drama and forgetting on commonsense or that was a shoddy work. A second variant is more closer by the following scene where a leader of mercenaries threatens to film’s villain, whom performed James Franco, by taking out pistol and shoots in shoulder and does next push on trigger but he had one bullet and therefore this is opened opportunity for antagonist to disclose for audience his natural badness.

There were more scenes as a neutralized aforementioned wife could reveal information many times before being slayed because it’s possible after hit by taser. And I didn’t know that keeping smartphone in a Canadian prison in allowance.

 

Set-up of Largo Winch wasn’t done with wish to elaborate. No sensible in creation of ecological division and put on him a killing people who initiated this subsidiary. Franco uses Largo’s knife for murdering that same wife, but police comes shortly and therefore they were supposed to detect this hero without conscience and they situate in snow place what means that law enforcers could find out another pair of traces in area having only that house. As well also, Largo could take out his accusation by a female Asian instagramer who did broadcasting of attacker after their prison escape.

 

We have Largo’s son who listened a far-left propaganda, which gave an unpleasant name to ecological troubles, and this exaggerated information he poisoned to his dad. However, I will be cheerful if an ecological plane will appear. Anyway, I would be happy to kidnappers and I would send them a postcard on Christmas.

I believe there was doing for political correctness. A board of directors including women and male and female pair of Asians. And, of course, a sudden sidekick in that instagramer who is a typical one by doing broadcast even in danger – yes, I already wished death for her but it willn’t be. The film has no only Black characters. Omar Sy was supposed to play a very bad main villain but schedule didn’t permit.

 

Largo could sled down and follow for neutralized Franco instead complaining. Antagonist didn’t fall from a big height as the female Asian instagramer says. The villain, as reveals, has no in presence of tactile feeling. Right, he doesn’t sense things as fire on his foot but it can’t just disappear. Largo Winch: Le prix de l’argent is basing on anomalies, which in screenplay’s holes and acts of personages.
