i thoroughly enjoy bilal graphic novel when it come out and and be amaze when i saw the trailer for this film and and even more so when i find that bilal have direct it himself . the film and however and be a major letdown . the visuals be nowhere near the rich and gritty texture of the original artwork and and the story be poorly tell . bilal seem to have choose to focus on the more esoteric aspect of the graphic novel and and he doesn not do a very good job at it and either . the most enjoyable part of the original graphic novel be the friendship hate relationship between nikopol and horus . they be both out of their right time and place and force together by circumstance . most of all and they be funny and likable . not so here . nikopol have no discernible personality whatsoever and and horus be a pompous twit who just want to get lay . even though the film be french and horus doesn not have to be . we have all see film we enjoy and but wouldn not recommend to everyone and for some reason or other . i wouldn not recommend immortel to anyone and except maybe a a warning not to overreach your talent and resource . bilal a master storyteller and but obviously not a master of every visual medium .
