Reviews
For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
This French film's title 'Laisse aller ... c'est une valse!' means something like 'Let go ... the competition is fierce!'. And yes: its plot is all about several parties, violently hunting after the same loot of stolen jewelery.'Laisse aller ... c'est une valse!' is a crime-comedy, made in a typical lighthearted French style. It's also very 1970-s, resulting in a degree of improbability that may not be fully appreciated anymore.A little astonishing is this film's setting in winterly Northern France. Thus adding a harsh touch, that at times obstructs its bottom lime of lightheartedness.Whatever, this film is saved by its unwavering competent acting. In particular female lead Mireille Darc stands out, and not because she is one of the few women in this man's film.
It's supposed to be witty but it is often languishing. It's meant to be funny but it's often thick. Only a few dialogs can vaguely salvage this Turkey, a few lines by some seriously good actors; Bernard Blier is excellent, Jean Yann and Mireille Darc as well.This movie is the end of a line born in the 50's, a line which had its days and its myths, a line which went into decadence in the 70's, with movies like this one. Mobsters are no longer funny, witty and amusing, the spoofs of "films noirs" became boring before they disappeared. This is the end of a world...
