This film language film stars Jamel Debbouze [Dramatic actor from Oscar nominated films Outside the Law and Days of Glory] and Rie Rasmussen, a pretty girl who some say has had a pretty limited career thanks to a poor acting job in this film. Honestly it is impossible to tell if an actor is just reading lines if you don't know the language... because you are READING the subtitles. So I'm not sure how much truth there is to this. Debbouze is quite a good actor and plays a character he seems to be comfortable with, an immoral man in a lower class of society.
The films title is a play on words. Debbouze plays Andre who is ready to commit suicide because of multiple debts from multiple criminal "bosses," which standing on the bridge [which isn't very high], he meets Angela [Angel-A]. She promises to give him a chance, since he saved her life when they both jumped off the bridge. She has an incredible ability to make quick money and beat up bad guys and spends the movie turning his life around.
This is not an action film and I didn't claim to be, she is his guardian angel, and what starts as a comedy/drama turns into a romance as the movie progresses. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. You might give it a shot if you are a Besson fan, but it isn't all that special.
