Solid noir. Not up to par with Melville's later work, but the quiet remove in the lead actor is already there in spades.

So elegantly directed. The script has a hard time keeping up, and you can see Melville evolves later toward more minimal scripts to let the direction carry the films.

A very mellow and entertaining film. It is very well paced and you are never bored, but in turn, it never really "picks up" the entire film continues on a steady pace and never really steers off of it's meek tone. Enjoyable nonetheless, but it isn't necessarily evocative.

At its core it's a heist film where the mastermind gets distracted and forgets about the heist; brilliant. SPECIAL NEWS BULLETIN: There is a dog in the film briefly and its panting is dubbed by an adult man.

Olha, estou dando quatro estrelas para esse filme não porque eu tenha gostado, mas porque a mise-en-scène do Melville é impecável e pela brilhante frase final, mas eu passei boa parte do filme sofrendo pela quantidade de pessoas estúpidas que estão aqui como personagens e ando com pouca paciência com gente estúpida. Box Versátil Filme Noir Francês Volume 2.

Melville shows his love of American noir and proves he's the godfather of the French New Wave. The story is a slow character study that seems to fumble the rushed ending (the shootout didn't work for me).

Melville usually generates a good amount of tension due to the well-crafted robbery plots in his films. Unfortunately, here part of that's missing due to the predictability of the heist failing, making the story less effective.

As solidly built as any of the classic heist thrillers. Melville takes his sweet time setting things in motion, introducing the characters' charms with one-liners and soaking in the romance of the streets, but when the walls of the plan start crumbling down, his gleeful sense of chaos takes over. Not quite as sharp as the best American noir and not quite as graceful as the best French, it's still consistently captivating with a smartly realized final act.
