Mathias Mesmans is solid, with a few rough edges

Mathias Mesmans gives this role a little extra shape without making a big show of it. I like the idea of the performance more than the full result. I would not call it bad, just not as sharp as it could have been. Some scenes click, some just sit there. It is solid enough, but there are moments where it feels a bit on autopilot. I can see someone else being kinder to it, but I did not fully get there.
