Being good isn't as much fun

In Los Angeles, a city where humans and anthropomorphic animals live side by side, Mr. Wolf is an expert pickpocket who leads the Bad Guys, a gang of criminals famous across the city. His best friend, Mr. Snake, is the group's safecracking specialist, and together the two live a life of big heists and narrow escapes from the police. This time, however, the cops manage to catch them, and the gang finds itself in serious trouble. To get out of it, the gang hatches a plan: pretend they want to reform and become model citizens. The film, directed by Pierre Perifel in his directorial debut, gives voice to Sam Rockwell, who plays Mr. Wolf.
