The Price of Money: A Largo Winch Adventure (2024). 1h 40m

“The first movie was (almost) faithful to the cartoon books ,- almostu0026quot; because one of the main characters was absent-the second was an original screenplay although snatches of comics stories appeared now and then (u0026quot;Lu0026#39;heure Du Tigreu0026quot;).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe third installment is based on two comic books , u0026quot;le prix de lu0026#39;argent u0026quot; and u0026quot;la loi du dollar u0026quot;, but,to put it mildly ,loosely ; the screenplay is muddled and complicated to a fault ,blending past and present ,and casting an American star again (Sharon Stone in the second episode) :here James Franco could have been an asset ,had he been given worthwhile material to work with ; on the other hand, I have an aversion to Clotilde Hesme,the queen of the feel -good French flick (u0026quot;Diane a les épaulesu0026quot; u0026quot;lu0026#39;échappée belleu0026quot;) and as for me,her presence did not bode well .u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is essentially an action-packed movie , looking towards James Bond ,and desesperately trying to give a deep meaningful emotional dimension (model u0026quot;skyfallu0026quot;). The scenes filmed on location in Thailand are proportionately more palatable than the urban ones .And no Simon Ovronnaz !”
