Zas! La crisis en toda la cara... Película de sencilla construcción dramática: un dilema diabólico en su sencillez, Marion Cotillard (igual de estupenda y creíble en la alfombra roja que aquí, en camiseta y derrochando desesperación y fragilidad al borde del abismo laboral), y la cámara de los Dardene persiguiéndola en todo momento. Extremadamente realista e incómoda, cine social sin monsergas. Así sí.

Definitely good, though only thanks to Marion Cotillard's excellent performance.

The premise is intriguing and features some emotional scenes, there's one with Timur (Timur Magomedgadzhiev) that particularly hit me in the feels out of nowhere; it's not even the most gut-wrenching part of the film, yet it made me feel something the most.

The camera work et al. isn't all that great, the dialogue is especially underwhelming. Perhaps I was noticing it more due to viewing with subtitles, but there's a lot of moments where we see Sandra (Cotillard) retrace the same steps with each individual - it gets repetitive.

Cotillard, though, is top notch. She brings so much emotion and realness with her, nailing every single scene to deserve notable props. Away from the Parisian, there aren't any others to note; they are all fine but I would've loved a more meaty cast.

I'd be rating it a level lower if it wasn't for the lead, who is easily the best thing to come out of 'Two Days, One Night'.

I rate "Two Days, One Night" with 7/10 only because of Marion Cotillard's impressive performance.

The story itself is a bit too repetitive. She experiences the very same challenges again and again. The others react with similar doubts and reflection, with few exceptions. It's realistic but not really exciting or entertaining for the consumer.

This was a decent film. I ultimately hoped there would be a little more in there but I liked the moral question that it presented.

It's a very stupid movie. It was stupid of him to try to hold on to his job as if there was no other job left in the world, to try to convince people to vote against him even though they needed the bonus so much, to try to commit suicide without even thinking about his children. If he had tried to look for a job without wasting time, he would have found a job already. I had some free time and watched because I was curious to see what would happen, and I got annoyed with Sandra.

I could understand the struggle of the main character. However, in this movie I found dull and with an extremely repetitive circle.

If that was an american movie, she would have been offered a job in exchange for sex, at least three times.
