Grand Central
French love story about an aimless and unskilled worker (Tahar Rahim) who lands himself a job at a nuclear reactor. There, amongst the radioactivity, he finally finds what he's been looking for: money, a team, a family. But the team also includes a co-worker's wife (Léa Seydoux) with whom he falls in love. Forbidden love and radiation slowly contaminate him. Nominated for the Un Certain Regard Award at Cannes 2013.

The Guardian
An overwrought, over-thought tale of leaking passions inside a nuclear power plant.

Hollywood Reporter
A not-quite-successful fusion of realism and more romantic impulses with two appealing stars.
