Good Story this Gang Story
Entertainment at the highest levels of engagement. All the emotions are triggered and captured over and over again as we visit with 35 years of a friendship that was tested to the limits. Did it or does it hold is one good question. When it comes to crime, one never knows what to expect as crime doesn’t play by the rules but by its own rules. One has to remember that as violent as a gang wants to be, there is always someone more violent that wants to prove that point. Both are motivated but only one can prevail. Everyone knows the police are restricted, dumb and don’t catch on quickly, but what if they are not? Furthermore, what about human nature which proves to be unreliable time and again when things get dicey. Good acting, tense direction, clear cut story that makes several points and then does one good thing. It lets you be the judge of the outcome. This is as it should be. Tasty drink and finger foods recommended and this draws you in so no distractions to interfere with that or you will ruin the ten rating for yourself
Excellent Film of Gangsters
When the notorious gangster Serge Suttel (Tchéky Karyo) is captured by the French police, his middle-aged best friend Momon Vidal (Gérard Lanvin) meets with his retired friends to organize Serge’s prison break. Momon also recalls the beginning of his friendship with Serge, when he was a bullied gypsy boy and how Serge had protected him. Later, Momon worked as a gangster for a powerful mobster and learnt how to plan heists. Then he organized his own Lyon Gang with Serge and his friends, and they have become weaalthy. In the present days, he is a powerful retired mobster, married with his beloved Janou Vidal (Valéria Cavalli) with a son and grandchildren. The rescue of Serge Suttel brings problems he had buried in the past, and now compromises his old friends and his family. But Momon also learns secrets from the past.“Les Lyonnais” is an excellent film of gangsters, where the lead character Momon Vida is a powerful retired thieve highly respected by his honor and loyalty even by the French Chief of Police. His peaceful present life is disturbed, when his best friend Serge Suttel is arrested by the police. The story is presented in flashbacks in a magnificent screenplay, until Momon discloses a hidden secret from the past in the very ending. The direction and the performance are also top-notch, in this magnificent film. Probably the best film I have watched this year on a DVD bought a long time ago. In the end, another excellent French film. My vote is eight.
