    Three and a half. At the end of the film, the director said, since Jackal is not Cha, then who is he? He is a gentleman killer who is calm and careful and never backs down. The last 20 minutes of the film didn't have a few lines, but it pushed the battle of wits and courage in the previous two hours to a climax. The appearance of the disabled soldier made me feel refreshed. It's just, good luck makes people...

    The picture of the male protagonist being completely naked after killing his good-hearted female lover is beautiful. The director showed the killer's charisma and mind to the fullest, and the final result was only a little bit of success, which can be said to be entirely a matter of luck. Conversely, success is often due to low fault tolerance. The male protagonist killed 3 passers-by who forged a false certificate. Ruthless. In order to arrest people, the deputy director in charge of the...

    Compared with ordinary movies, which know the beginning and do not know the end, this movie clearly defines the beginning and end at the beginning, and focuses on the tension of the process. The classic symbol "time" in the film is not only a reminder of the process, but also an urgent warning sign, rhythm. It is very emotional, but compared to the coolness of the killer, the French police's mysterious and completely untrustworthy tracing process seems very weak and spoils the taste. It can...

    Bravo. A battle of wits from start to finish. Don't bring strangers into your home. A portion of the footage was found to have been shot near Montparnasse. I lived nearby before going to Paris. I said why so...

    4.5. A near-perfect killer movie. Kinneyman, like Melville, uses genre-driven, meticulously detailed storyboards to turn it into a visual presentation that rivals high-budget action scenes. There is nothing else in the whole movie but this scene, which makes our breathing rate in sync with the characters feel a constant sense of...

    I fell asleep twice. The opening quickly explained that OAS hired a killer male protagonist to assassinate de Gaulle. The main line is the whole process of this jackal from planning to failure. Although it is a political assassination theme, the texture is equivalent to a spy movie in the 1970s, but the plot is not entangled with multi-line narrative. The rhythm of the movie is flat from beginning to end, giving people a dry and indifferent feeling. The dual lines between the killer and the...

    The plot is tense and the characters are vivid. The best part is that the readers know that the final assassination will not be successful, and are very willing to read on, and they also have a hint of illusion, hoping that the ending can be changed and let the superior person be killed, just because this is so cool. British man with bright flax hair. A book full of exotic flavors, takes us through an extremely thrilling...

    it's all fate. What a pity. Movies are still not as rigorous as novels. In addition, in the 21st century, when all documents and biometric information can be checked online at any time, people targeted by state organs will definitely be unable to move, and naturally there will be no follow-up. Ps, I was brought home by a male customer in the hammam and still cooking, now I think about it, hmmmmmmm,...

    Killer ruthless

    woc, it's so nice. It's been a long time since I saw such an enjoyable assassination movie. This actor who looks exactly like Mr. Bao perfectly interprets a highly professional, rigorous and rigorous high-level professional killer. Regarding the assassination of Charles de Gaulle, the ending is...

    The baroness broke

    I read the novel some time ago and found the movie to watch. The look and feel is different from the current genre film. The style is slow, without the tension and oppression of today's films. It's a bit long, but fortunately, there is not much nonsense, and it is not so nervous. You can watch it...

The Day of the Jackal quotes

  • Lebel: The time elapsed from the first to the last shot was 7 seconds. In all, more than 140 shots were fired. 7 bullets pierced the President's car, one coming within an inch of his head, but by a miracle, neither he or anyone else was hurt. Six months later, most of the conspirators had been caught and tried. Their leader, Col. Bastien-Thiry, has been sentenced to death. At the last moment, his lawyer applies one more time for a stay of execution.

    Lawyer: The appeal for clemency has been turned down. There is nothing more that I can do. I am sorry.

    Bastien-Thiry: There is no need.

    Lawyer: For heaven's sake, man, don't you realize that you are going to be shot?

    Bastien-Thiry: You don't understand. No French soldier is going to raise a rifle against me.

  • Denise: Crisis?... .What crisis?
