Frontier(s) (2007)
7/10
Very intense, with gore and splatter, and very well-crafted, but also with its own unique character. One of the very good French thrillers!

Thriller movie from France. A gang try to leave France in times of political crisis and rising racism. Eventually reaching near the border, they make a stop at a remote motel to spend the night. The family to which the motel belongs has an old Nazi in the lead, and the whole family has another, hidden business behind the motel. Ultimately, unsuspecting passengers should fight for their lives. The film began by showing political crisis in France, rise in racism, and later on focuses on an old-Nazi, in an attempt to pass some social messages. However, as a whole, it is a survival film with excellent acting, direction, great shots in gray and rain, but also underground and dark tunnels. It also has gore and splatter elements. Very good as a whole that gradually leads to the suspense and a very strong ending. Although there are many similar films, this was quite well-crafted and had its own character. It is definitely recommended for fans of the genre!
