Well we missed pt1 so it was straight in for the concluding two hours. A big advantage when you have never seen Vincent Cassel before (well not that I can remember) so he does become Jacques Mesrine. Great performance and a decent movie.
I read on dear old Wiki that he worked in an Architects office for a year in the early 60's, but lost the job within a year. This was when Brutalist Architecture was at its height, so maybe this French practice didn't like this particular vision of it.

Oh, I'm going to have to see this now. He was excellent in 'Les rivières pourpres' but is a regular in so many great French movies. Another of his better films is called 'Read My Lips' (Sur mes lèvres).
