Critic Consensus: Melodramatic and overstuffed, Racer and the Jailbird mainly serves as proof that Matthias Schoenaerts and Adèle Exarchopoulos deserve to reunite in a better movie.

Schoenaerts and Exarchopoulos are still good, but the story drags them down.
Gino and Bénédicte devolve from characters who determine their own destiny into ciphers who arouse more pity than sympathy.
Two good characters and two good performances go into the old poubelle - or, as we say in English, the garbage bin.
The work by the two leads is consistently committed, not to mention oozing with old fashioned movie-star charisma.
This is melodrama, after all, but borderline boring melodrama, painting over scenes of potentially high tension with blasé realism.
"You have to stop lying," a father tells his daughter's new lover in "Racer and the Jailbird," and that's exactly what I wanted to say to whoever made the movie's trailer.
