"Ad Vitam" follows in the footsteps of many, many other French action crime thrillers but somehow doesn't quite pull it off.
The story that occurs briefly in the opening scenes of the film and the final third are what you might expect. Frenetic action, intrigue and spectacle abound. Regrettably, these elements are sandwiched between what amounts to an excess of "cop bonhomie" that's overstated and over long, stealing too much of this films run time.
The outcomes a film that feels absurdly short and as a result, more than a little dissatisfying.
In summary, decent acting, decent action but let down by an unbalanced script that doesn't seem to know the difference between an action crime thriller and a drawn out police soap opera. A marginal watch.
