We were about ninety minutes into ‘Le Cercle Rouge’ when it dawned on us: “Hey, this is a heist movie!” ‘Le Cercle Rouge’ isn’t really about a heist, nor is it really about the people who take part in that heist. It’s more about a late-Sixties concept of cool, of honor, of codes and those who follow them. In that, it has a lot in common with ‘Bullitt,’ I suppose, but Alain Delon is no Steve McQueen. I found myself less than captivated.
