Emilie Black Cinema Crazed The cast here is the top main reason to see this film and to own it. The two leads are Alain Delon and Jean-Paul Belmondo, basically French cinema royalty, [...] Their performances here are solid... Sep 7, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

pasha a A handsome, shallow Alain Delon in a bad film. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Alain Delon and Jean-Paul Belmondo buddy up in this 1970 French gangster film as they go from the small-time to the big-time. Kiind of similar to Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid though the clothes are snappier, and apparently Borsalino is a fedora hat company. Fun. <img src="http://www.taaora.fr/blog/images/visuels/0811111_visuel_le_borsalino_pour_un_look_masculin.jpg"> Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Juste pour le plaisir de retrouver 2 monstres sacrés du cinéma! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastic gangster movie with two of the greatest French actors. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member J'en ai reve des annees, je l'ai enfin vu ; au final je suis assez decu... Belmondo est tres bien, fidele a son role de seducteur a l'humour et aux muscles saillants. Delon, en revanche, fait pale figure a ses cotes, surjouant le caid italien (encore que ce sera pire dans la suite) et dont le seul merite est d'avoir engage Bebel au casting (avec qui il se disputera neanmoins pour une histoire de nom a l'affiche). La reconstitution est sympa bien qu'un peu fauchee, et le recit tourne vite en rond... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member vraiment un grand film Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
