Entertaining little film that plays to its strengths and leaves you with a smile. It is not revolutionary but it doesn't try to be. And that really is the movie's biggest trump: it knows exactly what it is and what it isn't and it flawlessly achieves its modest ambition with great pacing.

Not bad, but also not much.

Occasionally an unassuming film with a simple, but slightly unusual, premise comes along and impresses me by coming together in just the right way. Le Mystère Henri Pick does just this. The plot is clever, commencing with an almost matter-of-fact introduction before unravelling its mystery alongside its characters. Luchini carries the film, ebbing between sleazy & charming, while Cottin both indulges & balances him. The humour really worked for me from the performances to the overall absurdity.
