Sinopsis(1)
Grimm es un hombre ingenioso, inteligente, proclive al disfraz, paciente y amigo de sus amigos. Esta última cualidad, tan común entre las aspirantes a Miss de todo el mundo, a Grimm está a punto de desbaratarle su más ambicioso plan: atracar el más importante banco de Montreal y llevarse a casa, libres de impuestos, más de dos millones de dólares. Porque una cosa es entrar en el banco, despistar a la policía y a su obsesivo jefe Labrosse y llevarse el dinero y otra muy distinta es tener que hacerlo teniendo como socios a su gran amigo gafe Georges y a la espectacular, en todos los sentidos, Lisa.

The standardly amazing Belmondo in a not-so-standard French comedy with a solid American feel that drowns the otherwise amazing French fun.

A few years ago, I would have given it four stars, but when I saw this classic comedy again years later, I found it somewhat unbalanced, with a number of dull moments or moments with the type of humor that doesn't appeal to me. The uneven cast is probably to blame, with Belmondo being two or three times better than Cattrall and Marchand. Something is not quite right when an actor in a purely supporting role steals the show in the second half of the film. Several scenes with Jacques Villeret as a taxi driver are superb, especially the scene where Villeret escapes in Adam's costume, disguised with twigs – it's simply divine. The first half of the film mainly relies on Belmondo and his performances as a clown, but they should have worked more on the dialogues, because, as I mentioned at the beginning, several scenes without Belmondo are unremarkable. Overall impression: 65%.

Definitely one of the highlights of French crime comedy. Belmondo rocks both the bank robbery in a clown suit and the dangerous stunts on a moving car, Kim Cattrall is quite good, and Francis Veber conducts it all at a relentless pace and with a great joke in every line. The second half does take a bit of the shine off, and cutting the film by at least ten minutes wouldn't hurt, but I still had such a good time that I could have taken one more break-in in the end just fine. Belmondo has no competition.
