Synopsis
Cash Truck (Le Convoyeur, 2004) is a French crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Director Nicolas Boukhrief sets the story inside an armored car company on the brink of collapse: three brutal robberies in one year, no survivors, and a very reasonable suspicion that someone on the inside is feeding information to the attackers.
That is the situation when Alexandre Demarre walks in for his first shift. Albert Dupontel plays him with almost no dialogue and barely a change of expression — a man who somehow radiates more danger than the armed gangs waiting outside. Jean Dujardin, before his Oscar-winning years, is his partner, and the two carry the film's low-key intensity on their own. The rest of the crew speculates. Demarre just drives.
The film operates on a slow burn, letting dread do the work rather than action sequences. What makes it land is that single unsettling question: what exactly does Demarre know, and what is he really there for? Stream Cash Truck (2004) online on iFILM.
