Loses its impetuous within the first couple of minutes.

Rating: 3/10 (25 March 2008)

Lucky Number Slevin tries too hard. It is well shot and worth watching simply for the cosmetic entertainment it provides. Its all-star cast however doesn't manage to save it from mediocrity. The script...well, it attempts wit, and sometimes even succeeds, but for the most part fails miserably. The impression of an intelligent plot diminishes as the film progresses and it becomes apparent that the said impression was simply a result of omissions in the telling. Rent Lucky Number Slevin, don't buy it.
Lucky Number Slevin is visual popcorn. A film as quickly forgotten as seen.
