Grits - Mesrine is back... boring as ever...

76.99.186.92

Victor Khomenko

The second part now is streaming, so I took a look.

A totally lame production... with no dynamics, no interest... just a long and tedious stream of boring sameness. Didn't finish it, turned off without a regret... will finish watching next time, just to be done with it.

Follow Ups:

Strong disagreement: very enjoyable, very well directed and Cassel should be an Oscar nominee for - tinear 16:14:50 04/03/11 (1)
Best Actor.
A fascinating character, as portrayed, and not romanticized. He was a vicious, murdering thug, but that doesn't mean he didn't have human traits. In other words, the film portrayed a man, not an archetype. I don't know how much was fiction, but this wasn't a documentary. It's far superior to any crime film of recent years. Only "Carlos" is as exciting, as pulse-pounding and entertaining.
For lovers of film noir, look no further!
- The only pulse-pounding were sex scenes with Ludivine Sagnier - Victor Khomenko 13:07:06 04/04/11 (0)
  If not for her presence the film would have been a total snoozer...
Got the disk at the first of the week and decided not to comment....... - mr grits 21:48:55 04/02/11 (1)
Cassel can show out better than that.

The director was too guilty of romanticizing Mesrine. I guess Bonnie & Clyde started all that crap.
- The director should go back to school - Victor Khomenko 07:25:02 04/03/11 (0)
  The whole film is lame, but the last scenes are truly done at the level of TV soap opera.
