| 11.07.15 | Netflix | This Screening is part of event: DVRfest 2015 Always a sucker for a gangster movie, I was pretty excited to see this French movie that tells the story of The French Connection from the other side of the Atlantic. So 70s, true crime, gangsters, police procedural... these are all words that I look for in a movie. So why didn't I love this movie? I really expected to love this but I didn't. It's too long, mostly. And I hate that I'm saying this but I had a real problem telling the main good guy apart from the main bad guy. I guess all Frenchmen look the same to me. Anyway, I'm a bit surprised by this... time to watch something that will hold my interest a little better before delving into a horror double feature to end the night. |
