After one of his superiors tries unsuccessfully to frame him, the formerly by-the-book honest cop Julien Segal (Patrick Bruel) turns to crime as the way to fight them back. Along the way he wins the partnership and love of the lovely Claire (Sandra Speichert), and cleverly makes life very uncomfortable indeed for his nefarious police supervisor Carre (Didier Bezace) and the supervisor's dope-dealing buddy Roche (Jean-Louis Tribes). It seems that Carre can't prosecute Julien for his crimes without coming under suspicion himself. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
