| HKFlix Says: |
Very lighthearted comedy-actioner from famed French writer/producer Luc Besson. There are a few laugh-out-loud sequences here, and excellent performances from the two male leads; but overall the film feels uneven and somehow a bit unsatisfying. Hesitantly recommended as a popcorn flick. |

| Plot: | With his old-school tactics and pit-bull disposition, police detective Hubert Fiorentini (Reno) is all business. But when he discovers that he is the father to a now-orphaned teenaged daughter, things really get complicated.

| Overview: | Paris. Hubert (Jean Reno) is a worst headache for the police station as he always proceeds the investigation rather forcibly. And finally he is ordered to refrain from his work. He is so blunt and unsociable that he doesn't even have many friends, much less a girlfriend. One day he gets a call from Tokyo and learns that Miko has died. Miko is the only woman he has ever loved in his life. It has been 19 years since he left Japan and he decides to go there with the memory of Miko in his heart. But he never knows what is waiting for him; he is about to encounter Yumi (Ryoko Hirosue), a mysterious, beautiful girl and a trap of a huge web of the dangerous crime organization.
