MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Claudio Carvalho In Paris, the international police force and the Russian mafia are chasing Anthony Zimmer, an intelligent man responsible for laundry of dirty money in France. Zimmer was submitted to a plastic surgery, and his new face and voice are completely unknown. The only means to reach Zimmer is through his beloved mistress Chiara (Sophie Marceau), who is under surveillance of the police and the mobsters. While traveling by train to the country nearby Nice, the common man François Taillandier (Yvan Attal), who has the same body shape of Zimmer, is select by Chiara as if he were Zimmer and used as a bait to lure those that are pursuing her. When Taillandier is chased by the professional Russian killers, he runs the French police when the real situation begins to be disclosed to him."Anthony Zimmer" is a great thriller, with a situation that recalls Hitchcock's classic "North By Northwest", i.e., a man mistaken for another and pursued by criminals. The attractive story has many twists, a nice cast with the gorgeous Sophie Marceau and the efficient Yvan Attal in the lead roles. The beautiful locations in France is an amazing tour in this wonderful country. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "Anthony Zimmer A Caçada" ("Anthony Zimmer The Hunting")

Anconia This is an excellent film to watch with a significant other ... but make sure to schedule some "debriefing time" afterward. If you like films such as North by Northwest and The Thomas Crown Affair, you are bound to be intrigued by Anthony Zimmer.Sophie Marceau plays her part as femme fatale with a perfect mix of Eva Marie Saint's Artemisian aloofness and Rene Russo's no-nonsense sensuality, and it is a pleasure to watch her interaction with Yvan Attal throughout the film. I think I can safely promise that as soon as the film has ended, you will want to see it all over again.In an age of computer-generated action and ever-expanding body parts, it is true bliss to be seduced by a film that generates suspense in such a variety of ways. Jerome Salle needs no ticking bombs or buried treasures to tell a good story. As long as a man knows how to dress, how to write a script, and how to deal with a lady like Chiara, the rest will naturally follow ... Too bad so few Anglo-Saxon writers/directors respect those basic rules.Bottom line: If you rent Anthony Zimmer, you won't need a back-up film. Just make yourself comfortable, and get on that train. (PS: I'm not sure shoes like that are legal outside France ... )

stensson This is a story which we've seen many times in American movies. About the common gentle guy who without wanting so, gets involved in heavy things. And it could happen to all of us.The plot is rather clever, but you have some unanswered questions in the end. Sophie Marceaux plays the mystic lady and you never know whether she really is good or bad. Not even when the movie is over.What is a quite intelligent psychological drama, turns into a violent outburst. Anyway it's nice to watch such a plot in another environment; here the French Côte d'Azur. But it's too physical in the end and maybe the plot maker hasn't had any real good ideas about how to finish it.

claudes40 The only interest in the movie is the relationship between Chiara and the mysterious man. Of course, you guess quite easily the truth, but if you like Chiara you will be in love with the movie. Sophie Marceau has never been as beautiful and demonstrates at last that she is a great actress. There is at least a real sadness, a real mystery in her eyes. The music does a lot for a story: of course, it is very "Hitchcockian". The movie is clearly inspired by Vertigo and by To catch a thief, an it gets some of their respective magic. The only disappointment is Samy Frey, who tries too much to look mysterious. another pleasure of the movie: its location. A wonderful home to die for, appears at the end. It must be located in Ibiza, because i don't think you can find something as wild on the Cote d'Azur nowadays.
