Highly Overrated But Still Good

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

this is another of those films where i spent 5 days filming , i remember it was probably one of the best jobs i did , i had to sit at a table drinking beer watching all these Girls around me prancing around Naked , it was fantastic , i had one girl above going up and down too and fro on this giant Bannana , great great great .. give me more, what else can i tell you , i think the film had a good story line great cast but it needed a little more with the direction .. i think the film was rushed to be finished and i got the feeling that is the reason it flopped in the box office due to the fact it needed that little more extra mileage ..

I watched this movie on pay-per-view recently, which is what i do when i'm not sure if a movie is worth going to the theatre for/buying. I realised I wouldn't watch it if someone paid me to! The setting seems interesting - unlikely people getting mixed up with each other - the kind of storyline that you can make a really good comedy film out of. Which is why it's shocking how boring, pointless and NOT FUNNY the movie is. None of the actors came close to being convincing except for Elena Anaya, who played her role as Mimi very well, but then Mimi was pretty much a minor character. Virgil(Billy Zane) said his lines so slowly it makes you want to throw something at him. Andrew Lee-Potts as Abe did little more than run around with a constant expression of panic throughout the movie. But Robert Carlyle as Danny Devine was the height of unbearability. An annoying loud guy that pops up on the screen every 3 mins cribbing about his '****ing money' is enough to make you want to rip your hair out and bury yourself alive. And of course, what could be worse than a movie with a bunch of crazy characters, than a movie with a bunch of crazy characters that's NOT AT ALL FUNNY? But I definitely recommend this movie if you like 1. listening to people ranting all day 2. watching kinky scenes no matter how bad the rest of the movie is 3. Elena Anaya enough to not mind the torture of the scenes she is not in.

Hit-man Lynch (Gary Oldman) is the best at his game, until one fateful day he runs into Mimi (Elena Anaya) while a thief is stealing her boyfriend Abe's (Andrew Lee Potts) phone. He falls head over heels in love at first sight, and can't get her out of his mind.Meanwhile, Mimi just confronted Abe by telling him she's pregnant with his baby, and he's having some issues dealing with this new discovery.Danny Devine (Robert Carlyle), a loan shark, is out to get the money that he loaned people - including money he loaned to Abe and his friend Sal (Jimi Mistry).After his encounter with Mimi, Lynch realizes she gave him the wrong phone, and Abe also realizes this mistake when he receives a call for Lynch. Abe finds Lynch's money and takes it, and Lynch goes in search of it.Finally there's Virgil (Billy Zane), who is hired to follow Lynch (although it's actually Abe after they switched phones) because Lynch seems different. They enlist the help of assassin Dragan (Karel Roden) to help with the search.All of these interlocking stories connect with one man - Samuel Fish (Terence Stamp). What is all their connections? Sure, this isn't as good as say "Snatch" or "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels," but it was a humorous mobster action flick. You follow the interlocking stories until its stunning climax, all the while laughing at the pure acting ability of the spectacular actors who are in it.

Absa-bloody-lutely awful!! Gary Oldman. What *were* you thinking? Robert Carlyle. What were you thinking? Terence Stamp. What were you thinking? Seen this mess? What were you thinking???It's the biggest pile of junk I have ever seen.How they managed to sign on these three relatively big names is beyond me. The script is abysmal, The camera work choppy, the editing slopping and the acting....well, lets not even go there. Robert Carlyle screams his lines as if he was in a hurry to get off the lot. Well, Mr Carlyle, I don't blame you for not wanting to be seen in the company of these idiots. I don't know who the script writer is but he needs a bullet in the brain and whoever green-lighted this needs to go for shock therapy.
