SAS are better.... The French GIGN are well trained, but none are better the the British SAS (could be argued).
The French are currently using the GIAT FAMAS S1, probably the best rifle they've ever made. (Remember the Chau-Chat?)
They do have a good airforce and navy though. They just dont use it.

They use it SO much! Haven't you ever been to a french airshow? MAN! THEY HAVE THE EUROFIGHTER! DUDE! Now THAT is an aircraft!
*ahem*
The French Foreign Legion was actually what I was talking about ferill - they are the most feared and respected special forces in the world. Basically, the majority of the guys in the FFL are 7 foot tall, built like a brick shit house, and have arms the width of tree trunks.
So in other words: Yeah they are slightly scary. Just in general, france are not the ideal opponent. The UK and US combined would still have a real hard time taking them on. In fact, it would be a pretty even and bloody battle. I sure don't like the idea of it. Thankfully, the UK and France are good allys...
