Sinopsis(1)
Huyendo de unos matones que le persiguen por haber robado unos valiosos documentos, Fred se refugia en el Metro parisino. En ese amplio macrocosmos de túneles, andenes y centros comerciales encuentra un lugar idóneo para eludir a los matones y a la policía. Pero Fred es uno más de la amplia fauna que, prácticamente, vive en las instalaciones del metro y otros trenes interurbanos: vendedores de ores dispuestos a robar cargamentos de dinero, veloces ladrones de bolsos que se mueven sobre patines, músicos aficionados en busca de una oportunidad... Fred, que ha iniciado una relación con la mujer del gángster al que ha robado, decide ayudar a un grupo de estos músicos con parte de un botín robado. (Divisa Home Video)

Subway could be considered a textbook example of French neo-baroque in film, as it exhibits almost all the characteristic features of this artistic movement. The film comes across as one long and very colourful clip, in which we are introduced to bizarre characters for whom harsh words and hits of violence are the order of the day, while the plot is, as the title suggests, set in a subway, which creates the strange atmosphere of a convoluted maze in which different characters pass by to confront each other, all with a haunting musical score. In short, a solid and brisk film that I can highly recommend.

Subway: En busca de Freddy puede no ser una obra maestra, pero es una película que te hace querer olvidarte de todo el sistema y simplemente pasear por el metro de París, tocar con Jean Reno y su extraña banda, y enamorarte de Isabelle Adjani. Una disparatada variación de Besson sobre la oda a la independencia de Jarmusch que, si bien no maravilla, sí que te deja con un agradable y relajado estado de ánimo y con ganas de vivir incluso en las mayores tormentas.

I remember squirming bitterly at Antal's Control, not because the film was in any way bad, but because the story was a lot like one I had been carrying in my head for a long time back then (only set in Prague's Congress Centre). And I didn't even know at the time that in 1985 Besson had made essentially the same thing, only with a protagonist who was a visual combination of me and Johnny Violent. Subway is a chaotic jumble of scenes and themes set in the underworld of the Paris subway with a real youthful edge that blocks anyone from trying to rationalize, classify, and generally just figure the film out. Besson wanted to be the protesting voice of youth, following in the footsteps of Godard and Truffaut, but instead he was simply a young calf spinning after skirts. This is what makes Subway such a pure, untamed, and unrestrained film with its own rare charm.
