The Rage of Paris start off well enough but despite some strong elements, it never seems to hit its rhythm. There are segments that are tightly paced but those are tempered by equally slow segments. Fairbanks and Broderick are both highly enjoyable and solid and bring some depth to the proceedings. Darrieux, who is generally very likeable, turns in a somewhat uneven performance and this really holds the film back as she is in almost every scene. Everything looked good enough and while there were touches of humour throughout, I didn't find it to be particularly funny. Despite several shortcomings The Rage of Paris might be worth checking out for the curious.
