What does the press think?
According to The Point:
“It’s unstoppable Anglo-Saxon efficiency: here we are, Cedric Jimenez grabbing us by the collar and holding us to our chair with a submerged, square, obscene staging device.” (Philip Goode) 4/5
According to Paris Match:
“An otherwise respectful screening film, in addition to being necessary, does not offend the grumbling of a certain critic who does not meet the film with short hands …” (Fabre Leclerc) 3/5
According to Liberation:
(…) Noisy cavalcade, where only specialists will be able to sort out many shortcuts or inaccuracies of factual, proven elements and fiction. (Great Peron) 2/5
According to Le Figaro:
“November and its Five Days ‘Embedded” may be criticized for its Anglo-Saxon cinematic effectiveness to the detriment of the characters’ incarnation. The assault trial is being held in the presence of the victims. (Françoise Dargent) 3/5
According to Telerama:
“The staging is impressive, but the characters are too disembodied.” (Samuel Duhair) 2/5
According to the cross:
“If a film is content with a restoration of reality – an investigation – the details of which we already know from the many articles and reports devoted to it, the director has the intellect not to add to it.” (Celine Ruden) 3/5
According to Les Inrocks:
“Cedric Jimenez resumes the November 13 terrorist hunt in a thriller that has been cleared of BAC Nord’s ideological flaws, but unfortunately sluggish.” (Theo Ribbeton) 2/5
According to the Southwest:
“An effective and factual thriller.” (Julien Rusett) 4/5
According to GQ:
“At the end of fifty hours of the movie, there is a bitter feeling. On the one hand, we congratulate the modesty with which the director conquered his subject, far from what he showed in his previous feature film; On the other hand, he had nothing else to say but the institutions’ struggle against the Islamist enemy, inaccessible, everywhere and nowhere. (Adam Sanchez) 3/5
According to Le Parisien:
“A nervous, exciting film with almost clinical vigilance.” (Catherine Ball) 4/5
