A classic investigation
France Télévisions has been accustoming us to detective fiction for years, especially with its collection “Murders…” and if the channel often manages to offer us original and fascinating stories, return Unfortunately it misses the mark and tries to surprise us.
The script actually lacks rhythm and singularity. The numerous flashbacks used to show us what happened during this famous operation are disjointed and add little to the narrative. Fortunately, the end result and the reveal of the identity of the big bad manage to surprise us, allowing us to save the furniture.

In short, Virage is a classic detective fiction that, if not revolutionizing the genre, should appeal to fans of the genre who will be carried away by this script, which embraces all the codes of the genre.
