"Les Suspects" is not a major work of art, but it doesn't have to be; its creators seem content with offering "just" a good, even-toned whodunit, made with affection for (and knowledge of) the genre. The script is neatly constructed, with constant back-and-forths in time, and even a sort of "intermission" in the middle where the language switches to English; pleasant locations in the south of France and a top cast are further assets. The finale is certainly a surprise, though not necessarily of the type all viewers will like. Nevertheless, I found the film entertaining and would easily watch it again. **1/2 out of 4.
