According to Les Fiches du Cinéma:

“The Big Power Movie.” By Thierry Chez – 4/5

“If the film’s form doesn’t always convince, the key here lies elsewhere: this man has to fire the camera as a weapon capable of recording unsubstantiated evidence.

According to Télérama:

Frederic Strauss “Very relevant and above all painful” 3/5
