Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
vonshavingcream I'll start off with this. I don't usually talk about movies at work. Mainly because people tend to have different tastes than me. But I found myself telling people about this movie after I watched it.I caught this one on Netflix the other night. I really enjoyed it. I like Sam Rockwell as an actor, I don't know if I can relate to him, or if he just brings that old style of comedy back to the screen. The story of the script is OK and I would have like to see a little more back story, but all in all, it held its own. Or maybe just some more "buddy" type interaction. Sam and Steve have that kind of chemistry, and could pull of quite a bit that most wouldn't be able to get away with.I would put this in the same section as Support Your Local Sheriff or Spies like Us. I know they aren't the same genre but I really think that The two main leads in this movie have that same kind of bond, like in those films.
smedrock If you like extremely witty dialog humor and situational comedy then this is certainly the movie for you. This one requires at least four viewings to catch all the funny little lines. I do not collect movies. There are very few I care to watch more than once or twice. However, I own this one and have watched it about 25 times. I love turning friends/family onto it. Haven't had a "rejection" yet! Extremely quotable movie. It is no wonder that the main actors as well as the writer/director in this Indie film all have major careers in Hollywood now. If you like gag humor and think "That 70's Show" is funny... stay away from this one... you won't get it.
Edgar L. Davis What's more funny than a couple of lounge singers, Jewish gangsters fromProvidence and unrequited love. The cast is amazing. Sam rockwell is a genius. Wheter he's in drama (Heist) or comedy(Welcome to Collinwood) he's seems toenjoy his work and when the actor is having fun the audience will follow suit. Mark Ruffalo, Steve Zahn(totally underrated), Paul Giamatti and the oldschoolers, Michael Lerner and Harvey Fierstein make this one of the best cast films in recent memory. Christina Kirk is sexy and funny and tough. The guy who plays the MC at the Bar Mitzbah is awesome. I laughed my ass off frombeginning to end.
popkiss66 and 1999 and 2000 and well, I'd venture to say its one of the best indie comedies in perhaps 10 years or more! Thank you john hamburg and crew for treating audiences to a heapin helpin of veal chop, padded a$$, and mc "pimp limp" victor!
