Ein unterhaltsamer französischer Gangsterfilm, der überwiegend im spanischen Benidorm spielt, das mit seinem Trash-Stadtbild und den Strandvibes eine Konfrontation einer bunten Gruppe von Kriminellen anbietet. Der gut besetzte Karim Leklou als Dieb und Prügelknabe und die ausdrucksvolle Isabelle Adjani als seine manipulative Mutter und eine Alpha-Diebin. Mit der Figur von Vincent Cassel hat man überraschenderweise wenig gearbeitet, der britische Mafioso Sam Spruell ist aber in den wenigen Auftritten delikat. Der Drive des Films basiert auf den Figuren und der interessanten Stilisierung. Die Handlung lässt sich in einem Satz zusammenfassen, sie ist bei weitem nicht so ausgefeilt und intensiv wie wir es von Guy Ritchie gewohnt sind.

A decent French gangster film about drug dealers with an excellent Isabelle Adjani, and Vincent Cassel is also good, even if only in a supporting role. The main character was a bit ulikeable because of how stupid he was and his mistake put him in an unpleasant situation, but I have to admit that the final fuck up with the viewer is impressive and very unexpected. I didn't find it very funny, but it is definitely an entertaining and film and Oulaya Amamra is a babe! 70%

An intriguing peek into the bizarre world of French drug gangs. Most characters are either total nutcases or completely strung out. Almost everyone sports ugly soccer jerseys and even shows up to drug deals in bermuda shorts and flip-flops. I mainly watched this for Vincent Cassel – he's always a mark of quality – and Isabelle Adjani, whom I haven't seen in anything for a while. Adjani plays a peculiar role as an unlikable and manipulative mother, which didn’t really do it for me. Cassel, on the other hand, steals the show. Even though he’s in a supporting role, his character is the most entertaining. I also enjoyed Sam Spruell as a British gangster whose worst fears ultimately catch up with him. Overall, it's a wild and breezy ride that, thanks to its brisk pace, never gets boring and keeps you entertained for 94 minutes. While it doesn’t break any new ground, it’s definitely worth a watch.
