The Gendarme and the Creatures from Outer Space Audience Reviews 2l1826

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Smoreni Zmaj The gendarme of Saint-Tropez this time are saving the world from an invasion of hollow aliens. When I was a kid this was my favorite from the series and I watched it the most. Not particularly high-quality movie, but full of healthy humor.7/10
Kirpianuscus irresistible. because all is well known. and this meet with the same scenes and gags, characters and noble intentions, far to be boring, is a splendid challenge. because the themes reflects the atmosphere of the period, the nervous troop is the perfect tool for Louis de Funes for show the sides of his art. and the aliens are amusing at whole.same conflicts and errors and end. memorable scenes and a great cast. and, sure, nostalgia. about a sort of old fashion comedy who remains a lovely memory.
ma-cortes Botcher Cruchot encounters himself attempting to save people of Saint Tropez from an outer space invasion carried out by humanoid aliens . As always , there appears customary gendarmes partners , Marechals (Michael Modo, Maurice Risch, Jean Pierre Rambal, Guy Grosso) , chief adjutant Jerome (Michael Galabru) , but this time isn't the sympathetic Jean Lefevre . When they aware an outer space saucer the Gendarmerie Nationale is revolutionized , Ludovic Cruchot (Louis De Funes) goes into in action , and he's secretly moving in disguise , dressing as a nun . The only way to discover the Extra-Terrestres from real human is which they feel deep thirst and take compulsively oil drinks ; furthermore they sound like empty metallic cans when they punch them . Then , the highlights happen as when the aliens impersonate as gendarmes and the events go wrong .This is an amusing story and pretty entertaining farce with the master comic Luis De Funes . Lively situations full of slapstick , slapdash and too much fun . The pic contains a light criticism to French police called Nationale Gendarmerie . Louis De Funes undertakes several adventures , overacting , as always , as he puts intense mocking faces , grimaces , tongue twister and lots of mimic gesticulation . Claude Gensac , as ordinary Ludovic Cruchot's spouse, she collaborated five films as wife , however this time doesn't appear , being substituted by Maria Mauban . Fine local photography with luminous sun under St. Tropez's blue sky . Lively and catching musical score by Raymond Lefevre includes usual leitmotif with musical background on habitual ending parade where the gendarmes are replaced by false aliens . However , it packs cheesy and ridiculous special effects referring the flying saucer . The movie is ingeniously written and directed by regular director series , Jean Girault . If you like Funes' nutty acting, you'll like this one.Other movies about our intimate gendarmes are the following : ¨Gendarme of St. Tropez¨ , ¨Gendarme get married¨ , ¨Gendarme at New York¨ , ¨Gendarme takes off¨ and the last acting of the great Louis De Funes , an authentic Farceur: ¨Gendarme and the Gendarmettes¨.
zzapper-2 This comedy is full of background jokes which you don't spot the first time round, (or even 3rd time). Funes is brilliant. We saw this several times on a rainy holiday! My kids loved it.The plot meanders a bit. Comedy without gross-out, those were the days!!
