Ola G @Ollie1972 Jul 21, 2014 The crooked police commander Simon Weiss (Roschdy Zem), head of the division that supervises Paris's demi-monde, starts out on his nightly tour of bars, discos and strip clubs, making sure once again that the owners don't bend the rules too far. Along with him is the newbie recruit and Weiss appointed driver Laurence Deray (Sara Forestier). Weiss knows he's between a rock and hard place: it's obvious that criminal gangs run rampant in his special domain, and even more obvious that they're protected by higher-ups in the department... "Paris by Night" ("Une Nuit") is a low-key, lifeless (despite its characters and night scenes) and thrill-less cop drama. There´s no real action, and it lacks the suspense I was hoping for and believed I would see. There´s no gripping narrative and instead we are served a chatty and repetitive ride-along with drawn-out dialogues that never seems to end. There´s nothing wrong with the performance from Roschdy Zem, Sara Forestier etc, but there´s simple nothing that keeps your attention and it becomes a snooze fest instead. See more

May 18, 2014 Roschdy Zemin karisman ympärille kasattu poliisidraama. Pariisin yössä liikutaan yhden yön ajan. Hitaasti avautuva juoni toimii varsin hyvin, vähän lässähtävään loppun asti. See more

May 17, 2014 Un bon polar francais bien ficele et qui tient en haleine. Ambiance, plans, acteurs credibles, bref une bonne surprise. See more

May 3, 2014 A faithful portrait of the Parisian nightlife and its dark sides. See more
