Outside the Law

OUTSIDE THE LAW (2010) - Sept. 13, 2010
Not quite the "epic gangster movie" that the TIFF guide promised (that's a seriously misleading description of the film, and I have to wonder if the person who wrote it even watched the movie), this was a decent film about the Algerian uprising in France in the '50s.  Well made and featuring a fairly epic scope without feeling too overlong (despite a running time of well over two hours), this was a good movie that I was just never all that involved with, despite never being bored.  **1/2
