Mesrine is a two-part 2008 French-Canadian film directed by Jean-François Richet and starring Vincent Cassel. Part One is Known as Killer Instinct (L'instinct de mort in the original French title), while Part Two is known as Public Enemy Number 1 (L'ennemi public n° 1 in the original French title).

Killer Instinct's script was based on the autobiographical book L'instinct de mort by French gangster Jacques Mesrine, and details his rise in the Paris criminal underworld after serving in the army in Algeria. The movie follows his early exploits in Paris, and later in Canada.
