Les infaillibles

It's been a long time since I watched something really alive, so that it wasn't superheroes against the background of graphics, or veterans of film studios shaking their track records as macho spy killers on the screens, no, so that there was life in the frame, and this film is just that case.

Life here flows like a fountain, though not in a civilized, decent way, as in cultural tourist places, but in different directions, as and wherever, so that it affects everyone around. But that's the beauty of this film.

The actors were chosen well, the relationships of the main characters do not look artificial, everything between them is very clear, distinct and natural.

Overall, the film is worth watching. Moreover, it looks easy, the film is swallowed whole without a trace and you don't want to pause or rewind, which in my personal experience is very rare.

The Infallibles (2024) French film is not of a French quality standard film. Casting is very poor. It seems to me that this is a low budget film copying Hollywood action thriller. Acting also average. The lady inspector is totally miss cast. Other actors are old and can not do acting.

French film industry has number of excellent actors and still this casting !!! Direction and editing are weak. One thing I like is the mention of ' Belmento' a villain turned lead actor who used to his own stunts without body double. Fear Over The City is an example of such performance.

However, stunts in this film is well choreographed and performed although many times by body double. Overall this film is average film.

Oh my God, I tried only a couple of minutes and then used the fast forward button of my computer to check. Just check and be sure not to lose one hour and thirty minutes of my precious time. In the beginning, you have an armored truck heist scene. And guess what, the hoodlums wear masks but NO GLOVES AT ALL !!! Plus, they touch the armored truck with their bare hands !!!! I said, I howled to myself: What the f.....??? Is that serious? And since last wednesday, I decided to watch again BRAQUO - Olivier Marchal's masterpiece - series again. See where I drive at? Watching BRAQUO series and this piece of Sh....in the same time. It would have been a pure torture for me. I am only a human after all. I could only make it for ANTIGANG in 2015 but not the part 2.... Not strong enough. So, imagine a "supposed" part 3...

Granted, the idea is not particularly original: two very different cops are teamed up and in the end become partners. But the story about how they catch a gang of criminals is well told, the action is spectacular. It's anice mix of action and humout although the humour sometimes is a bit over the top. What made me like the film was that it is an hommage to the action / crime films Belmondo made in the 70s and 80s. There is a great chase scene reminicicent of Peur sur la Ville and many characters actually have names from Belmondo films. It's this tongue in cheek style that makes the film really enjoyable-

Why have a 10 point of IQ poster for a film that is a lot more intelligent than that

I mean it is not MENSA but it is not what is on the poster

Cop buddy movie they do not get on then they start to then they get on great we have seen it a million times but it still works

And it is also a moral tale of family treason and healing and the views of Paris are stunning and there is not one minute when you are bored what more could you ask for

The acting is a B+ from all involved and the baddies get what baddies deserve well-oiled story and entertaining all the way

Enjoyable hour and a half. Recommended.
