The Informer (1962)
7/10
One irony too many

Warning: Spoilers
Gangsters and informants double crossing each other at every turn for past injustices. Not sure why the women were the worst informants no particular reasons given.

In fact there are so many double crosses that a couple at the end confused me... Jean for instance.

The movie was great until suddenly Silien (Belmondo) turns into a "good" gangster...then it loses steam and credibility which all comes down to over twisting the plot without credibility.

The last twist was totally unneeded and ruins the ending...the "good" bad guys kill each other...it also makes it seem squirrelly some how.
