Claude Legault, Guillaume Lemay Thivierge, and Paul Doucet are three screwed-up lawmen: short-fused, headache-plagued Thomas; phobia-ridden Jean-François; and their boss, Benoît, whose neglect of his wife has led to a break-up that pushes him over the brink. As Benoît spies obsessively on the departed Isabelle (Marie Turgeon), psychologically unstable Thomas and Jean-François are assigned to an undemanding surveillance job that becomes more challenging as the film wears on. Opening on a botched arrest during which a suspect almost dies, Filière 13 tries to put itself over with pumped-up slapstick, pounding music by Montreal trip-hop duo, Beast, and cool threads. - Maurie Allioff
