Movies Watched -- Mesrine: Part 1: Killer Instinct (2008)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

In French. 113 minute running time so a little too long. About a French gangster who was a “legend” in the 1960s … it’s not badly done, definitely a well-funded movie, but I wondered why the French and Canadian authorities were so bad about taking this guy out of the game. The thug has various beautiful girlfriends and wives, and Depardieu and his nose also appears in the movie. It’s not super terrible, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to see it.

(Seems like poker player / crypto guy Karl Chappe-Gatien is a fan of actor Vincent Cassel since he has a lot of the same body language.)
