Rien ne va plus (The Swindle) (1997)

Rating: * * 1/2 (Out of 5)

Claude Chabrol's 50th film is a bit of a disappointment, considering that his 49th was the chillingly excellent La Cérémonie. Rien ne va plus seems routine by comparison. The cons in the film are not particularly exciting, and neither are the characters, even though it is always a joy to watch Isabelle Huppert and Michel Serrault.
