In a near future, the world order has changed. With its 15 millions of unemployed citizens, France has now become a poor country. Its people wavers between rebellion and resignation and find an outlet in the shape of TV broadcast ultra brutal fights in which the players are legally doped and unscrupulous. —Anais Winchester

Goofs
There is a scene in the movie where the fight manager uses a blood test to indicate that the new drug will kill 3 others but not kill the main character. If there is a blood test to determine if the new drug will kill you, why did the corporation test it on and kill over 30,000 people? And, furthermore, there would be no risk that the company would test the drug on anyone else who is at risk because they could just run the blood test first.

Blade Runner meets Robocop "à la française" !

An excellent engaged B movie, mix of science fiction, action and thriller in a futuristic Paris Hashima mode. The actors are very good, beautifully filmed and you do not get bored for a single second. Entertaining and intelligent ! In short, by far one of the most beautiful surprise of this end of the year (2016). We keep on saying that French B movies are dead, but absolutely not, and it's called Ares !
