The Heir Apparent: Largo Winch (Movie Review)

Director Jerome Salle brings us this action-aventure staring Largo(Tomer Sisley) as he sets out to find the truth behind his recent father's death. Largo must face many fast-thinking senarios and vicious gun battles, while he sets out on the clues to his father's death and his own past. Ann(Kristin Scott Thomas) runs the company that is now owned by Largo since he was the only hier to his father Niero(Predrag Manojivic). Largo and Ann trek out to find the clues and help unwrap the history behind Largo and Niero and Niero's death. This action packed adventure will keep you on the edge of your seat untill the time runs out.

The movie is set in China in the 2000's. The movie was lit very well due to key lighting in some of the darker scenes. The shot list varied between action shots to show the intensity of the scene creating a hair raising expierence. You follow Largo from childhood to bring you into the character and understand how he acts. Largo didn't really do anything outside of just what a person would do if it were life and death. This makes the character believable and also connected with the viewer. The twist and turns that this movie takes you through the movie explaining events only as you need to know them.

This movie features alot of intricate story lines and will definelty keep you wanting more. The Heir Apparent: Largo Winch has a little bit of whatever one wants to see. Action, adventure, love, and hate, will make this movie a must for your collection.
