Borgo captivates audiences with its intense, psychological dive into the Corsican prison system, masterfully blending drama and thriller elements. Hafsia Herzi's performance as Melissa is particularly lauded for its depth and complexity, bringing to life the nuanced struggles of a prison guard caught in a dangerous web of mafia connections. While the film's atmosphere and character development are praised, some viewers found the pacing slow and the narrative somewhat predictable.

Très bon film
Cinéma
il est incroyable mais j’aurais tellement aimer que les deux finissent ensemble mdrrrr ou qu’il est plus de rapprochement.
Très intéressant. Pénétration originale dans l’univers carcéral. Le milieu corse différent dans sa paix des braves de l’unité 2. A part des autres avec son régime ouvert inattendu. Extraordinaire personnage de Mélissa la matonne , forte, et faible en même temps, se laissant + ou - piéger car ambiguë, décidée, têtue, autoritaire, impénétrable et habile. Portée par la volonté de s’en sortir. Personnages secondaires tous réussis : le mari, le commissaire, la directrice de la prison, les Corses, détenus, libérés ou chefs mafieux.
Grande intensité, tension ressentie.
