      My New Partner

      R 1984 1h 47m Comedy List
      Reviews 80% Audience Score 500+ Ratings Rene (Philippe Noiret) is a crooked cop in a crime-riddled Parisian neighborhood. Rather than fight crime, he's chosen to go with the flow, and he loves every minute of it: the kickbacks, the shakedowns, the drugs, the booze and the floozies. But when he's partnered with an idealistic new academy graduate, Francois (Thierry Lhermitte), determined to live up to the letter of the law, Rene has to find a way to corrupt his new partner, using gorgeous prostitute Natasha (Grace de Capitani).

      Audience Member I love Paris in the 80s, how 'bout you? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Una película que tuvo (inexplicablemente) éxito en Francia y dio para dos o tres secuelas. No se sabe si es comedia, drama o simplemente el director o el guionista no sabían exactamente qué querían hacer. Tiene a Philippe Noiret que es un actorazo, pero nada más. No recomendable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member An honest cop teamed with a corrupt one. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member a great comedy classic ! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member This French comedy is really well done , well written 1 the cast is just pitch perfect!It's incredible how you can really make a great flick with not that much money but good actors & above all a very cleaver scenario! Give it a shot it's pure delight from start to finish! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Noiret and Lhermitte is a great couple. Especially Noiret gives an outstanding performance as the charming but completely crooked cop. The moves oozes of atmosphere from Montmatre. It was a huge hit and two sequels was made after 6 and 13 years! The first one is a sparkling classic which you should not miss!
