Jacques Mesrine, a loyal son and dedicated soldier, is back home and living with his parents after serving in the Algerian War. Soon he is seduced by the neon glamour of sixties Paris and the easy money it presents. Mentored by Guido, Mesrine turns his back on middle class law-abiding and soon moves swiftly up the criminal ladder.

This film is a two part film . Vincent Cassell is stellar as this gangster above the law. Based on true Events. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Lots of violence.
