Discover this thriller passed under the radar but which nevertheless deserves to be seen for its mystery and its resolution. He is currently a hit on Netflix.
Presented on the Netflix platform with its original title, fracture, this film actually hides the thriller known in France under the title La Faille. He brings together Anthony Hopkins in the role he particularly likes, that of a criminal who thinks he is clearer than everyone in front of a young lawyer interpreted by Ryan Gosling.
What does he say?
New Line Cinema
The story is that of Ted Crawford (Hopkins) who, learning that his wife cheats on him, decides to kill her by committing the perfect crime. He shoots his wife's head, but she does not die and finds herself in a coma. Crawford recognizes the facts and engages in justice.
The ambitious Beachum prosecutor (Gosling) seizes the case, which will give him a lot of a hard time, because the crawford plan seems to have no flaws. How will he do to compromise the criminal, of which he is certain of guilt?
If fracture / the fault is currently well placed in the top Netflix of the most watched films on the platform, it is because it is firmly swarmed, and signed by Gregory Hoblit, to whom we also owe the very good prohibited frequency (2000) with Dennis Quaid and Jim Caviezel and the pleasant Primale fear (1996), with Edward Norton and Richard Gere.
A mystery that keeps in suspense

Above all, the mystery surrounding its resolution keeps the spectator in suspense, who is completely on the side of the lawyer seeking by all the means “the fault”, while having a certain fascination for the well -oiled plan of the criminal. A balanced and very effective alchemy, which guarantees total entertainment.
Note for the record that the role held by Ryan Gosling could have been held by Chris Evans, who auditioned for the role, and George Clooney was envisaged to realize.
