Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle I started watching this film, willing to give it a 10-minute chance, and I ended up sitting through the whole thing and enjoying it thoroughly. Rated: 3/4 Aug 21, 2016 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) An efficient and punchy heist movie. Rated: 3/5 Jan 22, 2016 Full Review Wendy Ide Guardian Whatever momentum the picture had accrued is lost in an increasingly absurd third act ... Rated: 2/5 Jan 21, 2016 Full Review Matt Looker Total Film Barbier never forgets the vital ingredient fun even if the character interplay doesnt always sparkle like the titular gem. Rated: 3/5 Jan 2, 2017 Full Review Alistair Harkness Scotsman Neither breezy enough to satisfy fans of Ocean's Eleven, nor dark enough to function as a serious heist film. Rated: 2/5 Feb 28, 2016 Full Review Allan Hunter Daily Express (UK) Watchable and smartly executed but there is little chemistry between the two stars.

Audience Member Фильм весьма интересен. Между тем "Флорентиец (также «Великий герцог Тосканы» или «Австрийский жёлтый бриллиант», Last Diamond, полагаю, до сего времени существует, и можно разыскать и предъявить для всеобщего обозрения Миру. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Simon, a burglar on parole, agrees to steal a priceless diamond and has a diamond expert help him with the heist. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member A very entertaining and surprisingly old fashioned diamond robbery caper the plot contrivances of which have to be taken with a pinch of salt. At times the screenplay is ingenious and the story expertly paced, but there are more than a few scenes that require huge suspension of disbelief. The replication of the vital key is rather too easily obtained in improbably difficult circumstances, and the ease with which the diamond is swapped is laughably and ludicrously unbelievable. For a French film it all seems a bit lightweight and lacking in originality, but there is no denying the sheer simplistic fun to be had from it all, even if the last 20 minutes are a bit pedestrian and laboured. The meaning of the ending is anybody's guess. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Although it doesn't bring anything new to the genre, it is well-written, fast-paced, thrilling and definitely worth seeing. A French 'Ocean's Eleven' that delivers with .down-to-earth style. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Very enjoyable thriller, with a great twist. Berenice Bejo is a stunner. If you see the film in cinemas in the UK, you can win a real diamond ring, so I hope I will win the competition! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member "Oceans 11" pero situada en Francia con un twist en el tercer acto. Siempre es agradable ver al excelente actor egipcio Yvan Attal en el Festival de Cine Frances en Mexico. (Texto intencionalmente sin acentos). Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
