A waste of Jean Reno, of Paris
29 December 2023
This Jean Reno vehicle stalls at the start. I had to check that it was supposed to be based in Paris as only one actor (Reno) sounds or looks the part. The rest of the cast are primarily English speaking with American accents. With a city like Paris, you expect it to be a character in itself, but it's not. This is a police procedural that feels like the first storyboard version, without any actual development. It's large ensemble cast doesn't get any character development, and seem to just walk on set to utter a sentence or two, then walk off. Even Reno can't make this interesting. If it weren't 10 years old, I'd swear it was written, directed, cast, and edited by a chat bot.
