Review of The French Connection (1971) by Danny D — 09 Feb 2009
An excellent crime story that sees things a bit differently. the film focuses more on the tedious side of detective work, with drawn out scenes of chases, stakeouts, and tails. the film looked at the outset like it would be more interesting than it actually was, but what we got was still very good.
the end fell completely flat, keeping this film from masterpiece status. it was one of those endings that felt like they ran out of money and ideas and just cut the film short. aside from the terrible ending, the rest of the film was excellent.
