I started rewatching all the "Gendarme" movies, classic comedies from when I was young and you didn't have much to chose from. People were looking forward to watch another movie with Louis de Funès, still by far the greatest French comedian ever. The man with a thousand faces, his gimmicks alone are worth the watch. Le Gendarme de St-Tropez, the first one was at this point the best one, followed up by a rather disappointing Le Gendarme à New York, to now be followed by Le Gendarme Se Marie which is slightly better. Claude Gensac makes her first appearance in the Gendarme movies. She will be in many other movies with Louis de Funès in the future. Michel Galabru is also a great watch, never failing to entertain. The movie isn't perfect but there are enough moments were I had the giggles, mostly when Galabru and/or de Funès are involved. In 1968 everybody from France and Belgium watched this movie, it's a classic French comedy everybody remembers.

Le gendarme se marie, also known as the gendarme gets married, is the third installment in the Gendarme series, and it's just as entertaining as its predecessors. This time, we see Sergeant Cruchot, played by the inimitable Louis de Funès, navigating the complexities of romance while still trying to maintain order in the charming town of Saint-Tropez.

De Funès is once again in his element, blending slapstick humor with sharp wit and impeccable timing. The comedic situations are brilliantly executed, whether it's Cruchot's awkward attempts at courtship or the misunderstandings that arise from his interactions with his fellow gendarmes. The film is filled with funny and memorable moments that make it a true delight to watch.

The storyline is engaging, the characters are lovable, and the humor is consistent throughout. It's a perfect example of why Louis de Funès is considered one of the greatest comedic actors of his time. I give de gendarme op vrijersvoeten a 9/10 for its humor, charm, and the fantastic performance by de Funès.

Again Ludovic Cruchot(Funes) and the Marichal remaining(Guy Grosso,Michael Modo,Christian Martin and Jean Lefevre), this time the chief Adjuntant Jerome(Michael Galabru) assign them impersonate ordinaries civilians to chase lawbreakers drivers,transgressors and delinquents. Meanwhile Ludovic falls in love with a rich widow named Josefa(Claude Gensac)surging an electrifying romance.Then Cruchot goes to a dance academy practicing an amusing dancing along with a thief.Cruchot takes Josefa to Disco-music called Byblos and happen various incidents in a 'Vaudeville' style. There his feisty daughter Nicole(Genenieve Grad) impersonating a girlfriend and later she embodies a little girl facing to Josefa. Later Cruchot presents to exams for superior degree along with Ajuntant Jerome and Ludovic is promoted by an error as chief of the Gendarmerie Nationale. When is aware the true, Ludovic turning into midget.Exciting final pursuit including a helicopter and where Louis De Funes driving in bounds and leaping until a ship. Of course also appears the ordinary nun, this time driving rapidly a sidecar and Ludovic as co-pilot , replacing the habitual Citroen.

It's an entertaining story and very amusing tale with the farceur Louis De Funes.Packs agreeable comedy, tongue in check, lively situations abound, crazy humor and too much fun. This time is the first intervenes Claude Gensac who collaborated with Funes in ten movies, often acting his role's spouse, though some episode is substituted by Maria Mauban. The argument is similar to previous and successive entries adding a brief intrigue about the kidnapping Josefa by a criminal and the problems emerge. Colorful local cinematography under Saint Tropez bright sun by usual Marcel Crignon. Enjoyable soundtrack by Raymond Lefevre, however this time isn't the usual ending parade , being substituted by musical background of the just married .This co-production Paris-Rome is professionally realized by customary director Jean Girault.The flick is a Funes recital, if you like Funes'nutty acting you'll like this one, because he does intense mocking faces,grimaces, moving in disguise and lots of mimic gesticulation.It's followed by Gendarme in New York, Gendarme and creatures of outer space and Gendarme and the Gendarmettes.

And once again gendarm Ludovic Cruchot starts the motor of his car. The holiday time ha begun and masses of tourists are expected. He and his gendarms are sent to controll the streets. And soon Ludovic notices a very quickly driving car of a woman. He starts the chase which finally ends at the police station where he meets her, a widow of a policeman...

This film is one of the gendarm series with Louis de Funés in his best role. It always makes fun to see those films and the great landscape around Saint Tropez - and of course, Saint Tropez itself. It absolutely fits to the summer time, to a warm summer evening, sometime in August, for example. Enjoy that great film!

The third in a series of films about the gendarmes of Saint Tropez is also failing to keep up with the first, but it is better than the second and a decent choice when you want to rest your brain. The same team continues in the same manner and if you do not expect too much you will not be disappointed. I liked the comparison that I found in one of the reviews for this film, where the crazy nun, who in every movie appears at the right time to give a lift to Cruchot, is compared to Sandra Bullock in "Speed".
