An expensive movie, 17 August 1999
10/10
Author: CUQ BENJAMIN (cuq.benjamin@wanadoo.fr) from PARIS FRANCE

Le Poulpe is a good movie made on books which aren't always greats. Players are good, summary is very good too, black humor is perfect. I only have one question. How the producers have spent 5 millions $ for a film of theaters which looks very like to en excellent TVFilm.
