Review of Urgence

Urgence (1985)
NO emergency.
31 January 2004
"Urgence" is one of the many "political" movies which thrive in the 1975-1985 French cinema.This one is rather pleasant to watch because of the solid cast (Richard Berry,Donnadieu,Jean-François Balmer and Georges Géret)but the plot is rather thin and the implausibilities are everywhere.Good intentions -denouncing neo-nazis groups -rarely make satisfying movies and "urgence" is no exception.The final lines which appear on the screen -a device that was overused since "Z" (Costa-Gavras,1969) and are overkill in lieu of a serious conclusion.
