-
"Ludicrous. Its logic flies out the window like a rocket. It's unbelievable and ridiculous... But fascinating it is."
-
"[Parillaud] remains a totally uninteresting figment of Besson's blinkered movieland imagination, especially when she's in the company of Karyo and Anglade, who provide balance to her overacting."
-
"A supremely slick piece of entertainment where style triumphs over substance."
