AV Club
The elaborate production, written and directed by Louis Feuillade, is an epic modern crime thriller, the precursor to many of today's multi-million dollar action films.
DVDLaser
Seemingly taking the technology and style of the day, and pushing it to its absolute max, there are aesthetic touches within this series that feel as vibrant as anything today.

Combustible Celluloid
Louis Feuillade's extraordinary ten-part silent serial of 1916, running just under eight hours, is one of the supreme delights of film.

Chicago Reader
There's a hero (a resolute reporter), but all the interest goes to Irma and Co -- their heists, their feuds with a rival gang and with the agents of law and order, all conducted by means of slaughter... on a scale and insouciance appropriate to the time.

Time Out
It made criminal anarchy and terror into entertainment, which Feuillade made into art.
