Synopsis
Fed up with being beaten to pulp in rigged boxing matches, Patrick throws in the towel
and heads for the South of France, to work on his brother’s pizza stall. On
the way, he runs into a failed conman, Nathaniel, who is just as eager to start a new
life in a new town. As they head southwards, the two men strike up an uneasy friendship
and share more than a few adventures…
Film Review
The combined talents of Jean Reno and Christian Charmetant fail to rescue this third rate
comedy and the madcap comic situations soon become tiresome and predictable. There
are a few good jokes, and occasionally you sense that the film is going to take off and
get better, but it doesn’t. This is lowbrow comedy intended for a low IQ audience
that will laugh at anything with a pig in it.
