Critic Reviews of "The French Connection"
New York Daily NewsFebruary 22, 2015Its trigger-fast, explosive scenes and high-tension chase sequences (the one in "Bullitt" pales by comparison) will have you literally gasping for breath.
TIME MagazineFebruary 20, 2009A knockout police thriller with so much jarring excitement that it almost calls for comic-book expletives. POW! ZOWIE!
VarietyFebruary 19, 2008Producer Philip D'Antoni and screenwriter Ernest Tidyman have added enough fictional flesh to provide director William Friedkin and his overall topnotch cast with plenty of material, and they make the most of it.
Time Out New YorkJanuary 18, 2008William Friedkin's symphony of long, sharp shocks is memorable for any number of sequences.
Village VoiceAugust 28, 2007Popeye also earned counterculture points by mistakenly shooting a federal agent and exhibiting a conspicuous lack of remorse.
GuardianFebruary 19, 2013To watch The French Connection now is to experience the shock of the old: a lost world of the city, and a lost style of film-making.
Empire MagazineFebruary 13, 2012Hard as nail crime saga with a blistering central performance.
Slant MagazineSeptember 11, 2011Four decades after its initial release, William Friedkin's Oscar-sweeper The French Connection remains an electrifying achievement.
