Not to be missed

Rating: 10/10 (24 July 2000)

I always believed that a good film needs a good plot and/or screenplay to start with. This film has one of the most interesting plots in a long time. Even if a lot of it was inspired by Pulp Fiction, Italian Job and a few othes, that doesn't take away from the film. (It's not like Tarantino hasn't borrowed from other films either). Plot is original and captivating. Film itself is very funny ("a disgrace to criminals everywhere") and deserves multiple viewings just to ensure that one gets it all. Acting is refreshing, music perfect for the film and editing, photography, jokes and all the rest work perfectly well together. If you're expecting to see a film that will inspire you to higher ideals, then look elsewhere; but if you're looking for a great comedy then this is the film to see. I happily gave it 10 in the voting section.
