Even though I always had a hard time with Luc Besson’s work, I have to admit that, for the last 30 years already, he has been probably the most ambitious French director and his movies were always intriguing to watch. However, it all changed with ‘Taxi’. Indeed, it was the first time that Besson was written a movie for someone else and, even though this movie was truly dreadful in my opinion... read more

A Complete Review of Luc Besson's work (39 movies items)

" It was actually directed by Chris Nahon. Luc Besson wrote and produced this movie. Even though it was watchable, with a strong Jet Li at the top of his game, the story was just way too generic to hold my attention and I really had a hard time to care about the damned thing. At least, this movie would be one of the very last opportunities to see the lovely Bridget Fonda who would soon go into early retirement following this flick. Anyway, I thought it was really average and I don’t think it "
