The problem with this ponderous comedy is that there are two plots:
1)Executives competing to be the chosen one , the future chief executive 's right-hand man.Appalingly trite.
2) A serial killer , "the fool moon killer" is at large and he enters the desirable mansion where the executives are staying ; but one of them 's wife is a lawyer and she welcomes the would be assassin because it would be a great deal for her career ; Claude Rich shows elegance , finesse and charm in this stodgy screenplay ; black humor ,which could have enlivened it ,is desperately absent. Even the unexpected end falls flat.
I really loved Jacqueline Maillan ,but on stage .
