Maigret in Montmartre (2017) Reviews

  • Really classy in every way. Reminds of the good old days when British mystery were not so filled with modern day politics

    colemarisa2018-01-07

    This is a lot like the ITV Marple and Poirot series. Classy, grret visuals, great plot, and nonse of the "teaching moments" that make me tirn off things like Father Brown, or George Gently half the time. I am not against that sort of thing, I just want to enjoy my mystery without being taught about prejudice. I am not a kid that needs lessons. Rowan is excelelnt in the role. The musical background is amazing. So far I have rewatched every single episode at least three times.

  • Love this series

    I just ran across this series. Seeing Rowan Atchison in such a serious role was just awesome. Now I'm going to try and track down shows I've missed.

  • Twin murder mystery!

    Reno-Rangan2018-02-04

    It's already fourth from a film franchise made for television. A couple of months ago I reviewed the previous film, and since then I have been looking forward for this one. It was a Christmas season release, and like usual, I'm a little late to watch it. Sadly, this instalment was underwhelmingly received. But I won't agree on that. In fact, it was much better than some of the previous films, especially in maintaining the suspense. Except the basic plot, it was okayish! I mean very casual, like any murder mystery, it opened its account. In the modern detective films, there should be a opening twist and the end twist. That's what lacked in this! It's a detective film, so what do you expect other than a murder mystery. So another murder that picks Maigret instead of the other way around. He could have stopped it in the beginning itself, but without it there won't be a story to tell us. This time it's a twin murder with signs of one murderer. Like usual Maigret goes after the clues that all points for a nightclub. It's a puzzle to solve, everyone around the victims have some kind of secrets to hide, including the victims. Now Maigret has to convince them all to come clean and sets for a trap to catch the bad guy. It was not a surprise twist, but a decent one to end the mystery once for all. There always a suspectable atmosphere about all the prime character tied to the murders. That's how the entire momentum was created to narrate the tale. Then I don't think anybody would guess perfectly who is the killer before it unfolds itself. But the angle is convincing, that makes the overall film a decent. -xX] At the heart of this case is a man who feels aggrieved. [Xx- There's a regular cast and one-time cast. The regular ones were good, led by Atkinson in the title role. As always he dominated, then his colleague vanished with a lesser screenspace. The one-timers contributed well too. The night club people, the young boy Phillippe, the Grasshopper and finally all the suspense is around the name Oscar. Montmartre street is the crime scene, but regarding the victims, they are from two different social classes. One a nightclub dancer and the other a high profile name. That is the big riddle the Miagret has to solve by connecting. The fourth film and a fourth director to helm this iconic novel adapted detective story. As well the first time the writer has been replaced. It maintained its average viewership, but like I've said, not everybody happy with it. I don't know what led them to that conclusion, but I enjoyed it. Nothing special, just a simple suspense drama. On the average it is an acceptable. Especially as it was made for television, that's the perfect platform to have it to maximise the outcome. Now the final question is can we expect the fifth film! They have recreated the brand that I've only heard of. This is my first version of this iconic detective. This modern version is to reach all the new generation and it did its part decently. So they should continue with it. This and the Jesse Stones can't be compared for several reasons, but this could be the British's own Jesse Stones. I meant purely as a television product, and about a detective. If you had enjoyed the previous three, you would do the same for it as well. Could be lesser, but that does not mean it is a bad flick. So those who wants a cop film, it will be a decent pick. 7/10

  • Pretty good remake of "oldies" - with a surprise choice for the leading role

    BeneCumb2018-01-06

    /refers to all 4 films with R. Atkinson as Maigret in 2016-17/ In fact, the Brits were the first to create a TV series from G. Simenon´s books - already in 1960 (R. Davies as Maigret), then again in 1992 (with M. Gambon). I have seen them sporadically, without much memories, but this I remember that Maigret was a thickset guy (the same type in Italian and French series). And now Atkinson - how come? Would it be perhaps some Mr. Bean and Johnny English included? But hell, no - he is a talented actor, I had no ambivalent feelings from the start. The French atmosphere is recorded realistically as well, followng the path of K. Branagh as Wallander where the language is English, but all the venues, dresses, cars, etc. original, and as I did not remember the previous series or books, I could watch the course of events approvingly. As for plots, the 1st episode "Maigret Sets a Trap" was least interesting and soon predictable, but the other 3 were pleasantly dynamic and thrilling, so I had to see the whole episode at once, without splitting. If you like Poirot-Lewis-Morse type of crime dramas with usually 1 case per episode, then this Maigret is definitely for you as well.

  • Better than the previous

    dakjets2018-05-20

    I have previously reviewed another episode in this series, and was not particularly impressed. I made a new attempt and saw this one. And this is much better. Exciting structure, good performances, credible, film is good and the atmosphere is the way it should be in a crimefilm like this. Unlike other criminal series, however, the killer is not a character we get to know along the way. As a viewer, we are not wondering which of those who appear to have done that. This is a minus, because when the end is a fact and the murderer is revealed he is one we have not been introduced to and a character we know nothing about.This is what makes Agatha Christie's books and movies so good to read and watch. We are usually surprised. But here it is someone out of the blue, although the circumstances surrounding the disclosure are good. In my opinion, this drops somewhat the film, and the ending becomes an anti-climax. But for all means, certainly one to spend time on.
