Like a Fish Out of Water(1999)

Like a Fish Out of Water is a heist comedy that follows a seductive con artist and her two partners as they recruit an ordinary man into their scheme to steal a rare, valuable fish. Their plan is audacious: sell it back to its wealthy owner for a massive profit. Monica Bellucci leads the cast alongside Tcheky Karyo, Michel Muller, and Dominique Pinon in this French crime caper. The film balances sharp wit with the absurdity of its premise, as the unlikely crew navigates double-crosses and complications. What begins as a straightforward theft spirals into something far more unpredictable, testing loyalties and revealing hidden agendas. The ensemble cast delivers charm and chemistry, making this a entertaining romp through the criminal underworld where nothing—and no one—can be trusted.
