Many people didn't get it because of wrong marketing

This IS a comedy. An action comedy, and a VERY GOOD one at that. Luc Besson's classic ironical tones and dialogue. I mean, anyone really thought this was meant to be serious? I understand the trailers did wrong, but c'mon, as soon as you start watching it, anyone with half-a-brain can see the brilliant little film that it is.

Some people can't cope with genre bending.

I can generally cope. I kind of see this one as a good try, which arguably didn't really work in the end. Jason Bourne meets Days of Our Lives meets Dr Kildaire. Different, with some undoubted attractions, but I can understand why it wasn't a big hit.🐭
