"Cartouche" has lots of great action set pieces, a wonderful sense of humor and endearing characters but the script is a letdown. The narrative is simply dull. My main complaint is that the film doesn't have one of those memorable villains you love to hate. If it is true that a film is good as its main baddie then this movie is a disappointment. The technical aspects of the film are much better than the narrative. Georges Delerue's zesty music score and the gorgeous color cinematography by Christian Matras are worth the rental fee. Also, Jean-Paul Belmondo is effective as the ornery hero. Claudia Cardinale is spectacularly beautiful as Belmondo's love interest. Oddest moment comes when a prisoner is being subjected to waterboarding (!). But I think director Philippe de Broca did learn a lot from this experience. In 1997, he directed "On Guard" (or "Le Bossu"), one of my all time favorite swashbucklers.
