Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for anyone drawn to the darker side of the street and anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead. Plenty of moral grey areas to chew on. Same wavelength as The Naked City or Foul Play.
The mood
Tense, gritty.
The pace
Wastes no time getting going, at 1 hr 50 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

Unorthodox detective Jean Lavardin is called to a provincial French town after a prank turns deadly.
