Review - Un Flic

The movie had an interesting mood with very little dialogue and gloom and rain throughout. The special effects were awful, especially when the toy helicopter hovered over the toy train. And like a lot of French movies, it didn't have and ending — it just stopped. Coleman shoots Simon "because I didn't trust him to commit suicide," while Cathy looks on without emotion. The Coleman gets in his car and drives off.
