A nice French Gang Movie

" Les Lyonnais " it's nice and chill gang film he got nothing special compared to others movie in this theme but it's cool movie and it's pleasure to see this kind of movie from France cause we know making violence in French movie it's It's usually frowned upon but the France give a nice movie like this while respecting the values and history of the period !!!

First to all the script was not bad but sometimes I felt lost I ain't got it who was who and who did that and I've got the feeling to get boring like unhooked from the story, too bad but it is my opinion about it !!! But mix the différents period of the story was a such good ideas and by the way really good makes !!!

The director did a pleasant work with nice shoots and good directing about the shoots too, the work of colors and play-lights on the shoots was good too

The acting was not bad at all but not great neither some character play sometime very bad but the mains character played good for me !
