Another stylish crime thriller from Jean-Pierre Melville, but one -- after Bob le flambeur -- somewhat disappointing. It's ambitious and looks gorgeous, but the chief plot twist is too anticlimactic and too clumsily handled for a satisfying conclusion. A few fantastic sequences ensure that the film is more than merely good, but it's uneven.
