I could have given it one more star if it's not the cliffhanger at the end of the movie. Disagree with respect, the story should better end here. It's welcomed if there is a series of it but THIS STORY has no reason, in my humble opinion, to extend into another 90 minutes. Anyway I believe it is done in good faith.
That's a well-balanced movie with a topic that many of us should have watched a hundred times. Yet since it's nothing in excess, it looks more realistic and logical in cinematography. U won't see a Mother-of-all-bombs explode when the cars collide, nor can u see cars fly against gravity. Be real!! That's the beauty of balanced minimalism in movies. And I am happy to say that this 90 minutes is totally worth it.
Lastly, if u r a fan of Fast n Furious, don't go for it. It's not Hollywood. It's not birds of a feather ;)

Why a cliffhanger at the end?
Lost Bullet
Lino is a small time criminal with impressive engineering skills whose activities have put him in jail. Charas, the head of a police unit dedicated to intercepting 'Go-Fast' cars used by drug runners invites him to be their mechanic on day release. After early successes Charas tells him he will arrange for Lino to be released from prison and join the team. Unfortunately before that happens Charas is killed by a corrupt cop. Lino must first get away from the police then find the one piece of evidence that can clear him; the bullet lodged in the dashboard of Charas's car.
This is not a film to be taken too seriously; the opening scene where Lino rams a Renault Clio through a building, including several internal walls, makes that clear! From then on there is plenty more action including a fantastic fight scene in a police station which manages to avoid looking overly choreographed and impressive car chases. The numerous crashes look real without explosions and obvious CGI. The cast is solid, in particular Alban Lenoir who plays Lino. Overall a fun film that fans of films with plenty of action, in particular car based action should enjoy; a great way to kill ninety minutes.
These comments are based on watching the film in French with English subtitles.
He went through 4 layers of concrete with a Clio
This is a police crime drama where the hero is Lino (Alban Lenoir ) a mechanic. The police work release him from prison to work on their cars to make them faster and stronger so they can compete with the drug dealers. As expected there are criminal elements within the police force.
I watch the film with English subtitles. It was a decent crime drama with a different kind of car chase at the end.
