Cast and Crew of Point Blank

Point Blank

À bout portant

"Point Blank" is an action thriller that incorporates many classic elements of the genre, such as high-stakes chases, hostage situations, and intense confrontations between law enforcement and criminals. The story revolves around Samuel Pierret, a nurse inadvertently caught in a dangerous criminal plot, which adds a unique twist by featuring an everyman protagonist rather than a typical hardened hero. Key genre elements include pursuit scenes through urban landscapes—specifically the subways and streets of Paris—escalating violence, and a race against time to save loved ones. What sets "Point Blank" apart from other action titles is its blend of emotional stakes, focusing on Samuel's desperate fight to protect his pregnant wife, combined with gritty realism and strong performances from actors Gilles Lellouche and Roschdy Zem. The Parisian setting also provides a fresh backdrop that distinguishes it from many American action films.
