Other than some decent action scenes, the acting was poor, the writing was very predictable and the on screen chemistry was non existent. Add in a little corny racist comments against white people and you have this awful movie. The fight scenes look like children when they play fight in the back yard. They just don't make good movies like they used to anymore.

Movie is fair. I'm just trying to figure out if that's Will Smith's voice, on the dubbed version 🤔 I can't find any information on the voiceovers........................

Lovable but miscast in 'Lupin', it always enjoyable to watch Omar Sy. The photography, with the bright iconic lighting and costuming, was artistic and refreshing. It's nice to watch comedies that don't get sidetracked with sentimentality and have a forced moral tale haplessly stuck at the end. It's fun and enjoyable and evident that they actors enjoyed the making of this one too.

I don't know if the jokes don't translate in English but in French this movie is hilarious. It's a real satire about french society and particularly the banalization of racism.

Great Fun. If Omar Sy is in it - watch it!

What a delight. What an original take on the buddy cop movie too. So much swank, so much comedy and drama, a great backdrop in the Alps. The opening scenes are as good as they come from the biggest Hollywood movies, this isn't Mel Gibson, but Omar Sy has the natural size of The Rock, and the lovability of Ben Stiller. He's a charmer and a joy to watch.

The jokes and scenes are far from funny and feel like they are aimed at kids. However the gruesome scenes probably took this to a 16+ rating, something that doesn't do the movie any good. Bad jokes, terrible drama and the plot is foggy and drags too long.

Funny and not boring at all!

Well acted, funny, humorous, and with many unexpected events. It is also funny to see all the lepenists (and friends) getting angry and writing bad reviews to this very funny and unexpected movie. But we all know their feelings, when people make fun of their ancient approach to life ;-)
