La French (2014)

£0.00

(The Connection)


Country: FR/BEL
Technical: col/2.35:1 135m
Director: Cédric Jimenez
Cast: Jean Dujardin, Gilles Lellouche, Céline Sallette, Bruno Todeschini

Synopsis:

An intrepid Marseilles magistrate turns the tables on the drug lords, and almost lives to see his quarry behind bars.

Review:

Impeccably made thriller in the hard-hitting French mould, self-consciously modelling itself after The French Connection. It fails to match up, for though the acting credentials are impeccable, it lacks the unity of action and sense of momentum of that classic.
