An American ex-Mafia boss and his family are transplanted to France through the Witness Protection Program, but draw the attention of underworld figures who are determined to see them dead in this darkly humorous action comedy starring Robert De Niro, and directed by Luc Besson.
Brooklyn kingpin Giovanni Manzoni had it all until the day he became a snitch. Now no matter how many times Agent Stansfield relocates Giovanni and his family, danger is never far behind. When they blow their cover once again, Giovanni, his wife Maggie, and their two kids Warren and Belle are shipped off to a sleepy village in France. It seems like the perfect place to escape the long arm of the lawless until the criminally inclined family resorts to their treacherous old ways, once again becoming a blip on the syndicate radar. Now the thugs are moving in, and they mean business. As the Manzonis use their unique set of skills to survive the relentless storm of bullets, bombs, and rockets, the citizens of this peaceful French village suddenly find themselves in the middle of an all-out Mafia war zone. Director: Luc Besson. Cast: Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Tommy Lee Jones, Dianna Agron, John D’Leo. Rated: R. Time: 1:51.
