Well, sometimes French people are ambitious. Again sometimes you have a nice and correct result like "Pacte des Loups-Brotherhood of the Wolf" and sometimes you have ugly surprises like this "Vidocq". The actors are all really bad, except Gerard Depardieu....you don't believe in them! Same problem with the general atmosphere and the image. It's all TOO MUCH. And worst of all, it's boring, really boring. The story-line is simple: Etienne Boisset, personal biograph of Vidocq, wants to know who killed him and he follows a path that even a child of 5 could have followed.
In short: actors are bad, the general atmosphere is unbelievable, the storyline is simple. I give it a 3/10. 1 point for the originality of the project (first movie completely with digital cam), 1 point for Depardieu and 1 point for a few ideas and for the effort.
