From his offices in Switzerland, Russian Igor Lipovsky is engaged in a vast and profitable gunrunning operation with Africa. The French government wants to hinder the activities of the arms dealer and sends a team to sink one of his ships heading for Angola with a load of illegal weaponry. Lisa, Brisseau, Loïc, Tony and Raymond are professionals: they carefully set up their cover, plan all their moves meticulously, and carry out orders without asking questions. Perhaps they should. The code-name of the mission is "Janus;" and just like with the ancient deity, there are two opposite faces for every aspect of the operation: the objective of the French government, the role of each team member, the presumed friend and the assumed foe.

One of the few movies that show real agents a little closer, and not James bond like agents...this movie had excellent FX and soundtrack, act was great , don't get why it got such low rating, the plot is understandable from start to finish. Didn't see the film in original lang. so maybe that's why i got another impression from the film
(dubbed in Russian). give it 8/10 - one of the movies i will definitely have in my movie collection.
