Synopsis

Max, a ruthless fifty-year-old hitman, discovers he has a problem: he now faints at the drop of blood. With his future in the profession in jeopardy, he's going to have to retrain... But not so simple when his only professional skill is to kill people... They are helped by a couple of young neighbors, Karim and Stéphanie, who do not imagine for a moment who they are dealing with... Max becomes attached, in spite of himself, to the young couple, until his past catches up with him.

Community Reviews

Reviews for 'Les Complices' show a mixed reception. François Damiens is consistently praised for his performance, bringing charm to his role as a hitman with a newfound blood phobia. The humor, while initially engaging, tends to fall flat as the movie progresses, leading to some viewers feeling bored. The plot's absurdity and the interactions with the young couple add a quirky touch, but the film struggles to maintain momentum, leaving some viewers underwhelmed despite a few entertaining moments.

👍 François Damiens' performance is a highlight.

👎 Humor may feel forced and fade over time.
