Write a review for this film...

This is a wonderfully entertaining film.  By blending pure farce with the traditional action format, we end with laughs as the bullets fly.  Michaël Youn is impressively deadpan as his professionalism as a courier is challenged.  Rather as in Jour de fête, this is another example of the old North American motto: "The mail must go through!"  Well worth seeing.
