Storyline

A mafia boss and his family are relocated to a sleepy town in France under the witness protection program after snitching on the mob. Despite the best efforts of CIA Agent Stansfield (Tommy Lee Jones) to keep them in line, Fred Manzoni (Robert De Niro), his wife Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer) and their children Belle (Dianna Agron) and Warren (John D'Leo) can't help but revert to old habits and blow their cover by handling their problems the "family" way, enabling their former mafia cronies to track them down. Chaos ensues as old scores are settled in the unlikeliest of settings. Written by Minoesch

Disappointed but Tarantinonisque climax
19 January 2014 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

With likes of Robert De Nero, Michelle Pfeiffer and Tommy Lee Jones expected a lot from this movie. Unfortunately, it turned out to be disappointing drab movie with little or no direction, sense or purpose. Michelle Pfeiffer was outstanding, funny and stole the show (Great actress but did not expect her to upstage De Nero or Tommy Lee). Dianna Agron was wacky and funny in a way as Bella Blake. While there are certain parts in which De Nero reminds you of Scarface, Casino etc, Overall he was less than his best. Tommy Lee looks jaded and had wooden expressions throughout. However, the climax is Tarantinoni/scorsesesque finish makes up for the lame start. Initially I would have hesitate to recommend it but it is a good watch. If you are a fan of mob movies, do not miss it.
