Synopsis

In 19th century Paris, the famed detective Vidocq (Gérard Depardieu) disappears while pursuing a murderer called the Alchemist.

Etienne Boisset (Guillaume Canet), a young biographer of Vidocq's, follows in his footsteps and progressively uncovers Vidocq's investigations. He learns how Vidocq was first called in to investigate a series of assassinations by lightning, which led him to pursue the Alchemist.

Etienne discovers that the Alchemist is a wizard of sorts who wears a mirrored mask and kills virgins to maintain eternal youth. Even the sex of the Alchemist is a mystery, because it sometimes utters mocking feminine sighs during combat with Vidocq.

Etienne probes deeper into Vidocq's investigations and eventually comes to learn that the Alchemist uses virgin blood to make magical mirrors that consume human souls.

At last, Etienne comes to the end of his trail and discovers Vidocq alive and in hiding. Etienne dons a mirrored mask and reveals himself to be the Alchemist. Vidocq has known all along, however, and is ready to fight his nemesis. During their final confrontation, Vidocq defeats the Alchemist, but the end of the film suggests that the Alchemist survives.

The soundtrack's ability to convey both the darkness and lightness of the narrative is truly impressive, making it a standout element of the film.

Betty Hall
4/10

The music did not effectively enhance the atmosphere or suspense of the movie. Instead of adding to the tension of the detective story, the soundtrack often felt disconnected from the on-screen action, which was disappointing and distracting.

Robert Anderson
4/10

I found the soundtrack of Vidocq to be repetitive and lacking in originality. The same melodies seemed to be reused throughout the film, making it difficult to distinguish between different scenes.

5/10

On the other hand, some tracks in the soundtrack felt repetitive and failed to evoke the intended emotions, making certain moments in the film feel less impactful. The use of generic soundscapes in some scenes detracted from the overall experience and could have been more creatively executed to better align with the complex storyline of the movie.

Some of the musical choices in Vidocq felt out of place and jarring. The abrupt shifts in tone and style made it difficult to fully immerse myself in the story, as the soundtrack did not flow seamlessly with the narrative.

Betty Hill
