Mathieu, 25 ans, aspire depuis toujours à devenir un auteur reconnu. Un rêve qui lui semble inaccessible car malgré tous ses efforts, il n'a jamais réussi à être édité. En attendant, il gagne sa vie en travaillant chez son oncle qui dirige une société de déménagement... Son destin bascule le jour où il tombe par hasard sur le manuscrit d'un vieil homme solitaire qui vient de décéder. Mathieu hésite avant finalement de s'en emparer, et de signer le texte de son nom... Devenu le nouvel espoir le plus en vue de la littérature française, et alors que l'attente autour de son second roman devient chaque jour plus pressante, Mathieu va plonger dans une spirale mensongère et criminelle pour préserver à tout prix son secret...

Critiques (4)
Several films have already been made about a struggling writer who, due to a chance opportunity, appropriates someone else's manuscript and passes it off as their own. The filmmakers did a commendable job in this thriller, effectively sustaining suspense until the rather unexpected conclusion. Pierre Niney, who played the ambitious young man more than convincingly, is certainly worth mentioning.

Pierre Niney perfectly embodies the role of an ambitious young hustler who grabs a not-so-kosher opportunity by the horns. He soon discovers the consequences of his actions. If you can accept that premise, you'll enjoy this writerly thriller. Personally, I had issues with the main character. He reminded me too much of today's generation, which, I get, was probably the filmmakers' intent. But hey, I can still be annoyed by it, right?

A good thriller that resonates with me because of the writer in the main role. What is such a writer willing to do to become successful? And how does he act when confronted with the fact that he cheated? A Perfect Man is a good, suspenseful, albeit somewhat alibi-driven and predictable alternative.

A Perfect Man or an almost flawless movie? I’m thrilled by the sophisticated and surprising plot which sucks you in immediately. It must be said that there are also some funny scenes alongside the thriller, but there’s nothing wrong with that in my mind. French movies are still well worth it. I’m happy to have had the chance to watch this spicy excursion into the mind of a writer at the French Film Festival, which created the proper atmosphere for a French evening with beautiful French language coming not only from the screen but also from the audience. Satisfaction all around.
