Summary: Cartridge Case is a crime comedy where criminal evil is treated with humour and irony.
The storyline is woven around a case with a big roll of money and valuable documents. The case was snatched from the Boss, who is played by a Russian pop celebrity Bari Alibasov. The “snatch” is on the heads of three “usual suspects”: the Canadian, Marcel and Rio, and it’s going to be their “dog day”. Casino is how they earn their lock and stock, but this time they’ll need “two smoking barrels”, if they don’t want to end like dogs in the Boss’s reservoir.
Searching for the case, our guys meet a number of criminal archetype characters, all of whom prove to be no use for them. They are also an object of hunt: there’s Grif, a hired hitman, and Fat Scruffs – a gang sent by a local crime lord…
Cartridge Case is a neat idea for a new comedy…
