I watched **Apaches** by Romain Quirot, and while some aspects appealed to me, my opinion remains mixed. The film undoubtedly has ambition: revisiting the story of the Apaches, those young outcasts in early 20th-century Paris, with a polished aesthetic and a resolutely modern direction. Some shots are stunning, and the characters' energy injects a strong intensity into the whole.

However, the screenplay sometimes felt lacking in depth. The stakes aren’t always clearly defined, and while the characters are intriguing, they remain somewhat superficial. The desire to stylize the narrative occasionally overshadows the emotional core, which made it harder for me to connect with the story. Additionally, the pacing is uneven: the middle of the film drags a bit, even though the more dynamic conclusion partly makes up for it.

Despite its flaws, **Apaches** is a film I enjoyed. It has a distinct identity, and even though not everything works perfectly, its aesthetic, energy, and boldness leave a lasting impression. It might not be a perfect film, but it has a uniqueness that makes it worth exploring.
