They wanted to kill everyone, even the dirty cop. If they infiltrated right from the getgo then they wouldnt have an easier time with the lower people. So they moved from bottom to top.

Plus by the time they took out the Boss and the Rabbi no one else knew, not even the cops as to what was going on. So they could have had unlimited time to kill the two, let them suffer a bit. No real fuss was made, clean getaway. The death of the Rabbi's son was made to look like a hit by the Boss, so they pretty much get away with it all scott free.

Was a pretty damn good movie and Lucy Liu was way fuckin cute in it.

Go see it.

"Slevin" is a movie that is a victim of its release date. After three weeks this movie only has $18 million, so sadly this is a box office bomb. Had this movie come out in late May or June when teenagers are out of school and starved for some intelligent action/comedy,this film could have had legs.

I still recommend seeing this movie if you like funny, violent movies. Not really worth buying on DVD, but see it once. I saw it on opening night and the theatre was quite packed, but if you go see it now you might be able to just beat off in peace when Lucy Liu is on.

qft. I may get the dvd, not sure yet. I was really impressed with the dialogue, that I would lilke some of the scenes to slice up for personal use. Not sure yet. Also you should be able to get it off two times to Lucy Liu, the movie is long enough.

8.5/10

Can't believe cnn gave it a bad review. Oh no, yes I can.. fuckers are stupid, not the first time.

Samus Aran · 05-07-2006, 12:15 AM

One of the best movies I've ever seen.

10/10 easily.

Yes, it was a bit predictable, but every part of it was very well done, tons of little statements throughout the movie that you go "ah-hah" to once the plot unravels. Glad I went. One of the few movies I've seen that was actually worth the 7 dollars.

This movie came as a MAJOR surprise for me. Thought I was gonna see a decent flick with celebrities just wasting their time but got a really damn fine movie.

Minor spoilers.

All of the actors were just perfect here. Willis did the job just standing there being effective with his facial expression, Josh H was really great with his "I have no care in the world" attitude until the turnover being full of revenge. At the point where the finished telling the Rabi and the Boss about it all I thought he might let them live or some, but it was a pleasure to see him finishing them without any further ador. That said, it was sweet that the murderings and killings just happened as well. Pling, dead, move on. Same with Lucy's death.

Usually I don't dig Lucy, I first of all don't find her that attractive as many finds her and I don't like her movies either but this one really sold me out, I'm in love now heh. Director and writer really shaped her well, I LOVED the dialogues in this movie. Pure money.

8+/10

If that's what you call a minor spoiler, then what would a major be, short of copy/pasting in the last act of the script? :P

Don't be lazy, wrap that shit in [color=#120800] tags.

Loved the movie.

Sole · 05-21-2006, 12:39 AM

just got done seeing this

plot was decent but pretty predictable, great performances all around with a stellar cast, and the dialogue was just top notch.

two thumbs way up

Here's a minor spoiler...........that will ruin the entire movie. Millie should edit his post to take that spoiler out.

Zanoan · 05-21-2006, 01:38 PM

Pardon me. Consider it done.
