"What'd you say before? A real team, a real duo." Netflix has debuted the full-length main trailer for the French action comedy movie called The Takedown, the latest from Hollywood director Louis Leterrier (of The Transporter 1 & 2, Unleashed, The Incredible Hulk, Clash of the Titans, Now You See Me). This is actually a sequel to the film On the Other Side of the Tracks from 2012, following Omar Sy and Laurent Lafitte - two cops with very different lives. The unlikely pair are reunited once again for a new investigation that takes them across France. This seems a bit like France's Rush Hour series, about these two goofballs getting entangled in taking down a big crime syndicate while crazy things keep happening. "What seemed to be a simple drug deal turns out to be a high scale criminal case wrapped in danger and unexpected comedy." The cast includes Izïa Higelin & Luka Quinn. This looks like all-out fun, I'll give it that much. Fire it up.

Here's the main official trailer (+ poster) for Louis Leterrier's The Takedown, direct from YouTube:
