The local criminal economy collapses after two amateurs hold up a mob
protected card game. This happened
once before and everyone is wondering if Markie was involved this time even
though he wasn’t the last time. A
hit man is hired to track them down and bring back criminal order. Jackie knows one of the guys fingered
in the robbery and he wants to bring in Mickey from out of town to take care of
this one. Jackie doesn't like killing people he knows because it gets messy with their crying. Mickey used to be a good
hit man but he’s gone soft, drinks too much and can’t take care of the job he
was brought in to do.
Let’s kill everyone having even a remote connection to the hold up
and then there are no worries about anyone being left out there!! This may be one of the worst movies
I’ve seen despite Pitt, Gandolfini, Liotta, Jenkins and Curatola. Gandolfini and Curatola have been
together before in The Sopranos.
So much idle chatter, a plodding pace, dumb/physically dirty criminals
and excessive violence. You want
to blast all of them just to shut them up. The only good scene from 98 minutes is a slow-motion
drive-by shooting. 2* (I didn’t
like this movie)
98 min, Comedy directed by Andrew Dominik with Brad Pitt,
James Gandolfini, Ray Liotta, Ben Mendelsohn, Richard Jenkins, Scoot McNairy,
Vincent Curatola.
Note:
Blockbuster 2 ½*, 6.4 out of 10, 76% critic 48% audience on Rotten
Tomatoes.
