- Synopsis:
Into the life of Victor, a middle-aged professional killer, comes Antoine, a young messenger who inadvertently becomes involved in a hit. Victor has no son of his own to pass the family business onto and so takes the naive youngster under his wing as his apprentice. The next assignment is the glamorous Renee, an art forger who has conned a gangster, but Victor has softened and can't go through with it. The unlikely trio team up and await the inevitable showdown with an unhappy client. Pierre Salvadori's wickedly funny crime caper features superb central performances with the deadpan Jean Rochefort in one of his greatest roles. One of the standout French comedies of the Nineties and now the subject of a British remake. - Actors:

Very Good - Wild Target review by KB
You can't beat French comedies & this is up there with the best . Within the first 5 minutes i was relieved that i hadn't seen it before & i knew i was going to like it & that was the case . Consistently amusing all the way through , excellently scripted story & very well acted .
