This movie is simply awesome! “SCARFACE MEETS THE GODFATHER… AN INSTANT CLASSIC”. Demanding, rewarding, unvarnished, epic, emotional, human, realistically brutal, perfectly paced, observant, focused, atmospheric, gripping… this film delivers from every angle like a cinematic scythe, a theatrical whiplash. Not for the faint hearted. This is one of those films you wish would never end.
A Prophet tells the story of a somewhat naive but intelligent young inmate, the scars on his body and face betray a violent past. He can barely read and write. He has no friends… but he rises through the criminal ranks to become a big “mafia” boss. Served with an outstanding cast – This movie is at times painful to watch but in the end you come out with the feeling of having watched a masterpiece.
