Un Flic plot

In a nightclub, Inspector Coleman and Simon, the mobster and owner of the club, meet. Coleman knows about Simon's "profession," but they've been friends for years. When Coleman learns that Simon is planning a major robbery, he is initially unable to intervene, but after the robbery, the trail leads straight to Simon, who vehemently denies.

You probably have to put it in its time, but I don't really understand the high rating. What a shady movie and what a dubious, fake cool, acting performance. Indeed, that first scene with the bank robbery is very worthwhile. But then the film descends to some kind of bluff poker game between commissary and gangster with his sweetheart. The action with the miniature train is very unbelievable. It ranks 119th in the top 250 best action movies.

Action movies aren't really my genre, but if this is considered a good one, then I'm afraid I will soon stop. What I did enjoy is the seventies setting of the film. The cars, the train, the decoration and even the telephone with a listening device at the back. I had completely forgotten that, but we used to have that with our telephones.

Bad.

The opening scene is promising: a bit dated, but I can have that gloomy look from the 1970s. Unfortunately it gets deadly boring afterwards. Alain Delon, but also Richard Crenna or someone like Catherine Deneuve: there is no one who not acts rigidly. Despite the limited running time, the film drags itself slowly to the end without a noteworthy highlight, one that I was very happy about.

1,5
