Customer Reviews: A few good moments but nothing to get excited about June 16, 2009 Trevor Willsmer (London, England) L'Enquete Corse aka The Corsican File is a disposable French action comedy that's light on the action and the comedy and whose sole distinction is tempting Jean Reno and Christian Clavier to team up again after their success with Les Visiteurs. Clavier's a Parisian private detective tricked into tracking down Reno's Corsican separatist, ostensibly to inform him of an inheritance. Most of the usual fish out of water culture clashes make their scheduled appearances without troubling the funny bone. What few laughs there are come at the expense of the local nationalist terrorist groups who are even more divided than the Judean People's Front and the local law enforcement networks who are just as obsessed with turf wars and internecine infighting. There is one funny sequence with one of the would-be Separatists buying tampons to use for fuses, but the film is far too formulaic to offer more, running out of steam long before the odd couple find themselves on the run. It's glossy and inoffensive enough and the scenery and Caterina Murano both look nice, but it's nothing you really need to see. br / br /The French PAL DVD offers a good 2.35:1 widescreen transfer with optional English and Corsican subtitles, though the plentiful extras - deleted scenes, outtakes, featurettes and interview with composer Alexandre Desplat - are all unsubtitled. br /
