L'ex (1996 TV Movie) User Reviews (2)

One of the best thrillers around

[stefan899 · 9/10 · 20 April 2001]

I found this to a very enjoyable and entertaining thriller from start to end. The pace of the movie never slows down as scene after scene something exciting or dramatic occurs. The girl who plays the Ex girlfriend who I remember is from Drop Zone gives a superb performance especially as she is very attractive and is at times very intimidating giving the movie its punch. The only let down would be that it is a bit too short and the climax of the movie is nothing special. But nonetheless a movie that will not dissapoint and will keep the viewer enthralled.

Wrong film

[pmjarriq · 25 February 2005]

I just wanted to tell you, IMDb people, that you mixed two very different films : first "L'Ex" a french made for TV movie, directed by Patrick Jamain, produced by Hamster productions and starring Bernard Giraudeau, Christine Boisson, Alicia Alonso and Elisabeth Vitali in the title role. It's a bitter-sweet comedy set in Paris, about a middle-aged television writer struggling with alcohol and divorce from his cold wife-producer. The other film is "The Ex", a Canadian thriller-suspense. These two productions were made around the same time with similar titles, but have nothing else in common. If the actors credits are from the french film, the crew is the Canadian-U.S. one, as is the poster. It's a bit confusing...
