Trivia:

In the film, Nerio and later Largo stay in a yacht off the coast of Hong Kong. In the comic book, they stay in a penthouse at the top of the W Group building.

Goofs:

Errors in geography: The old pictures showing the early life of Nerio Winch during the General Meeting are actually pictures from the town of Turnovo in Bulgaria. For a brief moment a sign in Bulgarian is shown that says Hotel Dobrudgea.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Man:[whipping her] Bitch! Who do you think you are?

Great movie but not in the Hollywood style.

I just can't read all those comments. You are complying that this movie isn't similar to Batman, Superman or James Bond? It's very disappointing that US rating is at 6 points. You liked District 8 - strange camera views and shaking hands, You like Tarantino with his time jumping scenes, and You are complain about movie that has both features. For me, Largo Wintch is real. It isn't a guy who uses laser weapons and flying cars loaded witch tons of explosives. He can't fly - it's an issue. He is in jail, and doesn't want to be rescued by cash - money isn't everything - movie says (at least few times). That movie carries a huge emotional load. I think that this film is voted so low, because it doesn't fit to classic Hollywood scenario of action movies like Superman, X-man e.t.c. Largo is to real, so any complaints are about his way of getting out of trouble.

I was enjoying this film from the beginning to the end. It was unpredictable, well played and well showed. At the end, i didn't know that comic book was precursor.
