Summary
Franck is a courier like no other. He will take anything or anyone, anywhere, any
time – if the price is high enough. His clients are gangland bosses who expect
a discrete, efficient service. His latest assignment involves delivering a large
parcel. Franck’s personal detachment is compromised when he discovers the parcel
contains a young woman...
Review
This big budget action thriller is clearly not a film for all tastes. As in most
films of its type, plot and characterisation are negligible, and what we have instead
is a relentless spectacle of car chases, fights and action stunts. Depending on
your age, intelligence and discernment, the film is either a high-octane, adrenalin-pumping
romp, or an unbearably tedious juvenile fantasy which will have you switching channels
in under five minutes.
