I grew up watching fantomas, great, clean, old fashion action flick, sadly this version doesn't have any subtitles and I cant understand French.

An excellent trilogy ! The best adventure-comedy film of my childhood !

I feel fortunate I DO UNDERSTAND FRENCH, and enjoy all the good humor that no Englich subtitle would be able to convey.

However ... shame on French studios, such as Gaumont, Kanal, etc for not making available subtitles to some of their excellent films, "Le Clan des Siciliens" for instance ... Same remark regarding the excellent recent musical show "Le Roi Soleil", "Le Petiti Prince", "Notre Dame de Paris".

I SAW FANTOMAS (ALL THREE) OF THEM IN MY CHILDHOOD. I WAS OBSESSED WITH IT. IT IS A GREAT FANTASY MOVIE NOT UNLIKE THE SAINT WHICH CAN ADOPT ANY HUMAN FACE. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THE ONLY COPIES AVAILABLE ARE IN FRENCH.

THERE ARE COPIES DUBBED IN SPANISH, BUT WHERE?

For this review I'm not talking about the OBVIOUSLY outdated action and gadgets elements but just taking into account the story and characters.

Well the first Fantomas was great and I'd gadly give it 4 or 5 stars but the two others were REALLY lame and boring to a point that I had to fast-forward most of it. A big waste of time and horrible acting with the most ridiculous story I've ever seen, seemed like written by a 5 year old.

Just watch the first one and toss the other two in the garbage where they belong.
