Braquo is Brilliant.From its brutal opening interrogation scene which hits you and theinterrogation suspect right in the eye, this French crime drama holds yourattention with its ongoing torment chamber of onetense scene after another and won't let go. You watch it with the one eye you still have leftwide open and the other firmly closed. Directed and co-written by former policemanOliver Marchal it possesses the credible details of the battered career cop’severyday travails that can only come from experience and that no amount ofwriterly research alone can match. It is part of what holds together theincredibly entertaining thrill ride of this first season of Gallic noir.
