Après la mort de Norah Elmer, un certain "Minos" prend contact avec l'inspecteur Letellier, chargé de l'enquête. Minos revendique le meurtre de Norah et annonce son départ en croisade contre la licence des moeurs. Aussitôt, Letellier se met en relation avec toutes les femmes récemment menacées par les maniaques. Parmi elles se trouve Hélène, qui a prévenu la police sur les conseils de son ami Pierre Valdeck. Minos n'en frappe pas moins une seconde fois, devant Letellier qui arrête de le poursuivre pour capturer un petit malfaiteur. Désavoué par ses chefs mais maintenu sur l'affaire, Letellier, bien qu'il ait renforcé sa surveillance sur Hélène, ne peut empêcher son assassinat. Grâce aux indices fournis par les fragments d'un oeil de verre, l'inspecteur comprend que Minos est Pierre Valdeck. Une chasse à l'homme est lancée... (StudioCanal)

Fear Over the City is a classic film with Jean-Paul Belmondo. It features the harsh reality of the French film school with everything it entails. It’s a play of eyes, music, feelings and emotions. And all in a way that only the good old French of the 70s and 80s were able to pull off.

Dirty Harry French style. Belmondo as a cop with an unconventional approach to criminals – I don't think the fingers on both hands would be enough to count the number of times we've seen Jean Paul in this role. Judging by the action in the film (pretty over-the-top) and knowing that Belmondo co-produced it, one can't help but think that it was made mainly to show how macho he still is and the nice stunts he still has in store (it must be said, in this respect he had no competition among his fellow actors, not even in the legendary stunt doubles "denier" Steve McQueen). Because the trivial plot is definitely not the highlight of Fear over the City, where the logic took a day off and some of the plot holes are unbelievable. All crowned by an ultra-violent villain who would look great in any parody. There are plenty of Belmondo movies that still feel fresh and inventive, this one is not one of them.
