## Description

A stylish, 70's-period crime thriller inspired by true events, The Connection tells the story of real-life Marseille magistrate Pierre Michel (Jean Dujardin, The Artist, The Wolf Of Wall Street) and his relentless crusade to dismantle the most notorious drug smuggling operation in history: the French Connection. In his crosshairs is charismatic and wealthy kingpin, Gatean 'Tany' Zampa (Gilles Lellouche, Point Blank, Mesrine: Killer Instinct), who runs the largest underground heroin trade into the States. Though the fearless and tenacious Michel, aided by a task force of elite cops, will stop at nothing including boldly orchestrated drug raids, devastating arrests, and exacting interrogations to ensure the crime ring's demise, Zampa's 'La French' always seems one step ahead. As La French mounts its retaliation, Michel will be forced to make the most difficult decision of his life: to continue waging his war, or ensure his family's safety, before it's too late. The European flipside to William Friedkin's 'The French Connection'.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb performances even if a little slow paced.
*by M***E on 5 January 2016*

Amazing film. A slow burner for sure with amazing performance from Jean Dujardin. The film is well worth watching. Called Le French in the main titles.... With English subtitles to say The Connection. Why didn't they just call it The French!?!? If you've seen the old film The French connection then you have an idea of the basic plot as it's based on the the same thing. Absolutely love Dujardin's films.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not a patch on the 70's counterpart, but an ok watch
*by M***V on 11 January 2016*

Generally an ok watch. When you put it side by side with it's 70's counterpart it loses on all counts. The comparison could never be avoided.The large gaps in time are not handled at all, suddenly it's years later. The political corruption presumably a key factor for the continued 'French connection' is heavily implied but not investigated, but the leaving party of a retiring cop for example, gets the full treatment. The acting of the cop and the criminal leads are uninspiring, predictable and the characters rendered 1-dimensional. Emotions are stock and contrived. A complex story again fails to be represented in film adequately due to the lack of imagination and craftsmenship of the director and writers, the producers either taking a back seat or conversely had far too much influence.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worse things happen at sea.
*by A***N on 14 August 2016*

1975.Marseille.A magistrate, Pierre Michel, is transferred from juvenile cases to the organised crime unit, in the hope that his winning formula can be used to greater effect against the scourge of smack that is flooding France and America. With a big bust (see the film: The French Connection) in New York bringing pressure and untold media attention, he sets about bringing down what appears to be the man behind the operation 'Tany' Zampa..However Zampa is a ruthless bastard who is embroiled in his own power struggle and gang war, and is busy trying to maintain his empire. Needless to say that he doesn't take too kindly to the interferences of some Eliot Ness wannabe.And the more Michel digs and uncovers, the more dirt he finds, especially concerning those supposedly on the his side...Not a bad effort this, I enjoyed it. Nice 70s vibes, interspersed with people getting whacked willy nilly..The cast are spot on the money (principally led by Jean Dujardin and Gilles Lellouche - who look quite similar - as the good and bad guy) and although it packs in a story spanning six or seven years the pace of the film holds up very well. Adding a French flip side, if you would, to what was happening across the Atlantic after/during the whole 'French Connection' bust in America. So those who liked the 1971 film or indeed if you have an interest in French crime cinema, you should be in your element.Plus the scenery is very pretty, with all the aquamarine coastline and stuff.3.75/5
