Film: Days Of Grace
Days Of Grace (15)
Dir.Everardo Gout, Mexico, 2012, 90 mins, subtitled. Cast. Carlos Bardem, Kristian Ferrer, Dolores Heredia, Tenoch Huerta.
Set in Mexico City, this high-octane crime epic chaotically juggles ultraviolent action amid three televised Soccer World Cup seasons. What the sport has to do with jacked-up cops, badass crooks and a brutally pulverized hostage matters less than first-time writer-director Everardo Gout’s desire to get his kicks wherever he can. Best when it’s insanely over-the-top, Gout’s energetic film often resembles a trigger-happy 1990s Hong Kong thriller, and even culminates in a triangular faceoff. Its midnight screening at Cannes and the fact that it’s scored by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis seems a harbinger of cult-film status.
