San-Antonio is a 2004 French action comedy, directed by Frédéric Auburtin and starring Gérard Lanvin as the titular protagonist, police commissioner San-Antonio, and Gérard Depardieu as his deputy and comedy sidekick, lieutenant Bérurier.

Based on Frédéric Dard's popular book series, the film had a very high budget by French standards. It had a troubled production history, received mostly negative reviews and bombed at the box-office.
