After bragging about robbing a convenience store, Félix lets his new friend Dave draw him into a plan to rob a bank. Craving recognition, he dives headfirst into the adventure, but the excitement quickly fades as things start to go wrong and the guns turn out to be all too real. This is almost a true story.

This trio of misfits have no business pulling off bank robberies when their youngest team member is also the smartest... It’s a credit to director Rémi St-Michel and Munger’s performance that Félix remains likeable throughout the picture. Go to Full Review
