Meurtres à Tournai

About This Movie

So, 'Meurtres à Tournai' is an interesting blend of crime drama and mystery, set against the backdrop of the Scheldt River. The film has this moody, atmospheric vibe that really pulls you in. You can feel the tension as the local inspector teams up with a French officer; their chemistry is a bit uneven, but it adds an authentic touch to their investigation. The way they unravel the clues feels methodical, but it’s not overly rushed, keeping you guessing. Practical effects are employed in a way that feels grounded, which is refreshing. The pacing might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it allows for some nice character moments that flesh out the story. It’s distinctive in its setting and the way it tackles themes of cooperation across borders, which is quite relevant these days.
