Adapted from a five-and-a-half-hour television miniseries, this three-hour biopic chronicles 20 years in the life of Venezuelan revolutionary Ilich Ramírez Sánchez aka Carlos the Jackal. Édgar Ramírez stars in the title role as the ambitious, egotistical, yet powerfully charismatic man who founded a worldwide terrorist organisation and raided the OPEC headquarters in 1975 before finally being captured by the French police.

Despite liposuction, Carlos is still an hour overweight. Or two hours underweight, depending on which side we look at it from. In any case, it does not work very well as a film, because it describes an overly long period of time using a spartan design and a not-so-sensitive edit. Ramíréz is awesome, but mostly the way he works with his body. It's worse with the psyche, and Assayas' work brings it closer to Edel's The Baader Meinhof Complex. Which is not a win, because against the slender and agile German athlete, this tall Venezuelan has no chance of going above average - the "television style" is taking his oxygen away.
