Jimenez hasn't exactly broken the period-crime-thriller mold, but he's built a solid entertainment, with techniques well absorbed from the American movie tradition.

Not just a strong likeness of Michel, Jean Dujardin has the right over-sized presence for the honest Magistrate.
June 11, 2015
It's a stylish affair, very solidly made if not exactly breaking new ground in our understanding of events or in the way the movies depict them.

Dujardin and Lellouche are great here.

It may prove too slow for some and the meandering can be a little maddening, but overall it's worth the effort.

The movie's strength is in its conception of Michel and Zampa, who develop a destructive rivalry, rooted in their mutual determination to prove their superiority.

A byzantine, if ultimately conventional, heroic tale that feels like a guided tour down a familiar alley.

It's familiar. We see the tale unfolding before our eyes from the beginning. But that doesn't make it any less enjoyable. It's a fast-paced story, confidently told.

It starts with gunshots - a Mercedes and its driver are riddled by motorcycle-riding assassins in broad daylight - and the pace of "The Connection" is bang-bang brisk most of the rest of the way.
February 22, 2016
Excels at playing with expected genre conventions and crime story boilerplate to shrink a globe-trotting incident down to, essentially, a strategic game of cat and mouse.
June 25, 2015
There is ample photographic evidence that the '70s were not, in fact, the best-looking, coolest decade ever. But you wouldn't know it from watching The Connection.
June 04, 2015
While the story lacks focus here and there, the film never feels overplayed. It's a work of bloody style and solid substance.
