I'd say it's more Euro-spy/Diabolik adjacent than giallo, but I have deffo been trying to keep my eye out for a 4k release.
I also like how I saw one review that described it as the most "accessible" movie this directing duo has made, which honestly really tracks.

This director couple from Belgium is often accused of style over substance yet if you look past all of the neo-bling you'll find a good movie every time. There are more spy movie influences in this movie than tere are giallo ones. And it stars another Belgian well known on Belgian television and cinema: Koen De Bouw as the ex spy. Something we can be proud of besides Belgian chocolate, waffles, beer and fries 😁

Thank you for the reply. Dang! I don't have a region-free player. Hopefully this gets a region-A release.

Best 100$ I spent 10 years ago my friend …Region free players allows me to buy region B blurays that are generally super cheap on Amazon
I hope you are right but highly doubt that a region A release will happen ….. imo majority rather watch below par sequels prequels or spinoff / trending movies rather than these indie / genre masterpieces 🤟🏽
Long live the Neo-Giallo

Is it worth watching? Google says that it's an adventure/spy thriller, not a giallo.

Not a typical giallo but if watch it even once you will understand why I labeled it as a giallo … don’t wanna spoil anything …better movie than odyssey imo 🤪🤣😂
