Classic French noir cinema. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 11, 2019
The dramatic tension is grim and relentless as the film grinds on, sometimes more anxious than entertaining, but the conceits of the movie are beautifully executed.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Apr 22, 2019
An occasionally exciting criminal informant drama that struggles to form much of an identity of its own, and takes too long to get where it's going.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 11, 2019
This is an unfussy genre entry that seasoned fans will eat up, thanks to the no-nonsense attention to world and character building.

At best, it's a consummately well-crafted and committed version of a story we've seen play out dozens of times before.

A top-tier genre yarn.

Punchily entertaining, and very seductively, claustrophobically shot and scored...

Close Enemies is well-made, well-acted - but it's way too predictable. Every beat reminds us of another, better movie. However did this land a Competition slot?
