Community Reviews

Viewers find 'Maldoror' a gripping yet dark thriller, deeply rooted in realism and inspired by the notorious Dutroux case. The film's portrayal of a young gendarme's obsessive hunt for a child predator is both compelling and disturbing, with Anthony Bajon's performance particularly praised. However, opinions are mixed regarding the pacing and some find the narrative overly grim and the characters somewhat caricatured.

👍 Anthony Bajon's performance is standout.

👎 Some may find the film excessively dark and slow.
