This was okay. Weird I didn't know about this, being a Harrison Ford and Romance Polanski movie. Something about his movies never quite do it for me. Other than Chinatown I think. Anyway I have a few questions about this movie. And I'm not a fan of how this movie treats the female character. Also, the macguffin is kind of hilarious, a nuclear bomb detonator called a krypton (yup) that looks like part of a firecracker.
The first half (and especially the idea of the disappearance of the doctor's wife without a trace) is brilliant. But instead of going on like that, Polanski made a "detective story about a nuclear device" out of Frantic and that's just a shame because the second half of the flick are mediocre at best...

Messy majority of a movie takes away from an intriguing first 30mins. Slew of characters in and out of scenes both unfamiliar and random really can't save this movie.

Honestly, I'd expect more action with a movie named Frantic. In the end, it looked like Americans with bad French were trying to communicate with Frenchmen with bad English.
