On Edge

About This Movie

So, 'On Edge' is quite the curious watch. This 2016 French drama dives into the lives of these three young guys—Adrien, Louis, and Mathieu—who are definitely not your typical role models. The small-town setting feels almost claustrophobic, and the whole vibe is a mix of reckless youth and emotional turmoil. The pacing is a bit uneven, which actually fits the theme of their chaotic lives. Adrien's decision to kidnap the girl Mathieu secretly loves adds this layer of tension and confusion among the trio, making you question their friendship. The performances have this rawness, not overly polished, which really gives it an edge, no pun intended. The practical effects are minimal but effective, reinforcing the gritty atmosphere that permeates the film. It's an interesting piece that challenges norms.
