Great, great movie!

Rating: Null/10 (23 February 2005)

I was really not sure what to expect going into this movie. I am pleased to say I went into it completely unbiased. I was expecting something good, but I was pleasantly surprised at HOW good it was. Going through the story would take too long, so I'll just explain the highlights and lowlights. The acting is superb. Watching the characters of Dean Keaton, Verbal Kint, Michael McManus, Todd Hockney, and Fred Fenster is a hoot, and on occasion, a hold-your-breath-or-you'll-miss-it moment. They work well together, and are completely believable as the colorful gang of criminals. It is Baldwin, however, who really steals the show, as the tough, trigger-happy, and possibly slightly psychotic Michael McManus. The character is hilarious, and as he racks up easily a third of the movie's large body count, you can't help but cheer for him. Kevin Spacey, of course, is fascinating to watch as the slimy and rat-like Verbal Kint. Gabriel Byrne is riveting as Keaton, and the others are as well. However, this is a mature movie. There is well over 90 f words, and brutal violence racks up a body count of at least 30 people. Nonetheless, if you are mature, go see this, cause it is one of the best movies EVER. Seriously.
