New York Times - ...A slick, calculating mixture of French contemplativeness and American flying glass....[Parillaud is] a nimble and dangerous-looking actress..., Los Angeles Times - ...Besson's cast here is quite good; Parillaud, Karyo and Anglade are all charismatic actors who can suggest levels of meaning..., Entertainment Weekly - "...Sensational..." -- Rating: A-, Rolling Stone - ...Savagely engrossing....It's wildly seductive and erotic...

A beautiful junkie condemned to death for the murder of a policeman is given a chance to live - as a secret political assassin controlled by the government. Her lonely existence is warmed when she falls in love with a gentle, humorous man who knows nothing of her bizarre and mysterious life. Remade in the U.S. as POINT OF NO RETURN and in Hong Kong as BLACK CAT. It was also the basis for the popular US cable television series.
