Synopsis
Antoine and Christian, two long-estranged brothers from Normandy, couldn’t be more different from each other: while the former is happily married with two kids and a successful boat driver, the latter is a facetious globe-trotting hustler who likes to engage in bar fights. But when Antoine starts getting involved in sleazy activities, Christian flies to his rescue. In an unexpected bonding-adventure they take upon themselves to defend the family they thought they’d never be.

Opinions on 'Top Dogs' are mixed, with some viewers appreciating the complex fraternal relationship and the performances of Grégoire Ludig and Michel Blanc, while others found the film lacking in humor and originality, describing it as forgettable and akin to a TV movie. The narrative, though straightforward, failed to captivate many, with criticisms pointing to its predictability and lack of dramatic depth.
👍 Strong performances by Ludig and Blanc
👎 May feel like a TV movie with insufficient humor
