It ranks among the best of the French New Wave noir films.

Doesn't quite rate lost-classic status, but it's done with a great deal of dexterity, intelligence and an appealing end-of-'50s cool.

Top CriticRomantic codes of honor collide with the unforgiving doom of the gangster thriller with a fascinating ambiguity... in Claude Sautet's lean, tough 1960 crime classic...

French directors like Melville and Chabrol did more with the basically American forms and inspirations, but Sautet (a fairly major talent) had crack nerves and an alert, humane eye.

The rerelease of Classe Tous Risques makes you wonder how many other movies this good got scuttled by the French new wave.

Top CriticEven though the film isn't considered a rule-breaking classic, its straight face holds up quite nicely, thank you.

Top Critic...another eminently watchable example of the French noir trend of the period.

To come across Classe Tous Risques is like discovering a bottle of marvelous French wine you didn't remember you had, opening it and finding it every bit as delicious as its reputation promised.

Top CriticA crisp, smart, cynical film about dishonor among thieves.

Top CriticA doozy of a French gangster pic that, in its beautifully refurbished and pithily resubtitled re-release, turns out to be one of the highlights of the 2005 movie year.

Top Critic[T]he young Belmondo alone is worth the price of admission to Classe Tous Risques ...

Top CriticA killer.

The late Claude Sautet was one of the best, and perhaps the most underappreciated, of the great French directors who came to prominence in the '50s and '60s.

Touching and merciless at the same time.

Claude Sautet's Classe Tous Risques is the kind of French movie that makes you want to throw on your trench coat, light up a cigarette and shoot somebody.

Top CriticBelmondo is the clincher: He's got so much jaunty charisma, the screen can barely contain him.

Top CriticThe new titles are flavorsome, and the restoration is up to Rialto's previous high standards -- shades of gray with the pale glow of an overcast autumn sky.
