...as Brad Pitt might say in this "Pulp Fiction" for Y2K. Sensational cast. Benicio Del Toro, Dennis Farina, Vinnie Jones, Brad Pitt, Rade Serbedzija, Jason Statham, Alan Ford, Mike Reid and the rest sparkle like the elusive diamonds in this film. Pitt, Farina, Statham and Jones are especially fun to watch. (Pitt's fun to try and listen to as well.) I've loved Farina since Michael Mann's "Crime Story." This was a wonderful return to form albeit a comedic form. Statham, the "star" of this very ensemble piece, is rock solid and anchors the work of the others. And Jones is wonderful as the man that cannot be killed. If you tried. The movie is wildly funny. Sad and horrific just enough to accent the humor. (Humour.) Go and enjoy.
