Unit 7

HKFanatic

The kind of movie that almost obligates film critics to employ the word "gritty." Makes great use of both its historical context (the run up to the 1992 World Expo) and some exhilarating chase sequences. While "Unit 7" bears a passing resemblance to the "Elite Squad" movies, it's still a fine example of genre cinema, particularly for anyone who digs a crime thriller delivered with that Tony Scott-esque flair.

Shiny boy Mario Casas did not quite convince me in this otherwise solid police thriller on the rise and fall of a supposedly hardcore unit determined to clean the city of Seville and make it safe before the expo cames to town.

Michael Diers

Recht solider Polizeithriller, bei dem jedoch die Tiefe der Charaktere zu sehr vernachlässigt worden ist. Ebenso fehlte mir ein passender Spannungsbogen.

La transformación de los personajes principales es el elemento más conmovedor de "Grupo 7". Estos arcos son agradables y tristes a la vez, complejos en suma. Por otra parte, la crudeza con la que se muestran las escenas es impresionante y la corrupción y el anhelo por la gloria es lo que difumina la línea entre los "junkies" y los detectives del "Grupo 7".

Scott Lucas

Recalls nothing less than vintage Mann. Sometimes they do make 'em like they used to. The burning dog might be the image of the year.

Nicht unbedingt langweilig, aber besonders spannend wird es im Verlauf des Films auch nicht.
