The gendarme and the extra-terrestrials is a unique entry in the Gendarme series, blending comedy with a touch of science fiction. Louis de Funès returns as the beloved Sergeant Cruchot, and this time, he finds himself dealing with aliens who have landed in Saint-Tropez. The film takes a bold departure from the previous entries in the series, introducing a storyline that is both unexpected and hilariously executed.
De Funès is once again in top form, delivering a performance that is full of energy, wit, and physical comedy. The film's premise may be unusual, but it works thanks to its lighthearted tone and the charm of its lead actor. The special effects, while dated, add to the film's quirky appeal, and the humor is consistent throughout.
Overall, the gendarme and the extra-terrestrials is a fun and entertaining film that stands out for its originality and humor. It's a must-watch for fans of Louis de Funès and anyone looking for a comedy that's a little different. I give it an 8/10 for its creativity, humor, and the fantastic performance by de Funès.
