Francois Perrin, arrive a Orly avec aux pieds une chaussure jaune et l'autre noire. Une aubaine pour Perrache, adjoint du colonel Toulouse, chef d'un service secret, que ce jeune violoniste fantasque. Il le choisit, pour jouer à ses dépends, le rôle d'un redoutable espion international. Toulouse, las de défendre sa place contre son très ambitieux adjoint Milan, a decidé de s'en débarraser une fois pour toute, en le lancant sur une fausse piste. (La Pellicule Ensorcelée)
(plus)Critiques (2)
"It flushes rapidly? And why is he flushing rapidly? Sure, he has a reason for it, but why does he flush rapidly?" I'm still dying laughing at the bagpipe scene, and in general this crime comedy is still as cute as it used to be. For example, the search and installation of wiretaps in the main character's apartment is perfect - especially the patient agent disassembling the matryoshka is brilliant. Pierre Richard acts (by his standards) very restrained, which is a good thing. And that great music by Cosmo!

Pierre Richard shows off his comedic skills here, even in the sense that he is not unnecessarily theatrical, although he does come off a little awkward at times. But it's never over the top, it's always with flair, and the film entertains for that reason. The screenwriting is also so beautifully hokey that you can’t help but like the film and be entertained.
