Review of The Family (2013) by Ignatiy Vishnevetsky for The A.V. Club — 11 Sep 2013
It’s at its best in the brief moments when Besson plunges into complete, comic-book-panel unreality, as in an early shot where a hitman in a black trenchcoat, black trilby hat, and black gloves emerges silencer-first from behind a wall of smoke.
It's the rare occasion when you might wish a director were more over-indulgent.
