Declaration of War (2011)

shaunk3000: @mikeryan He was talking about another movie Declaration of War saying not to confuse, but it was still funny.
chocolatejilin: @DictatorOak I'm pretty sure Polisse could have made it, because La Guerre est Declaree is like a 2hour long Grey Anatomy look-a-like movie
chocolatejilin: Polisse is a such good film. It should have been selected to represent France for the Oscars instead of La Guerre est declaree.
seattlefilmblog: Cool I saw a foreign film nom @ #fantasticfest. Good distribution pickup by @drafthousefilms :) Still missing DECLARATION OF WAR in category
