Lucky Number Slevin

This movie was kinda weird. I felt like it started out as one thing and ended up as something completely different, it's not what I thought it was going to be like at all. I thought it was going to be a funny kind of crime thriller, and it turned out to be somewhat dark and a little disturbing.

Josh Hartnett plays a guy who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, he's mistaken for a guy who owes money to some mob bosses and ends up in the middle of a mob war. The movie also stars Bruce Willis, Lucy Liu, Morgan Freeman, and Ben Kingsley so there's some great acting in it. The plot was entertaining, and there's an interesting twist at the end.

DH really liked it, I'm still not sure about it... I think it would be an ok rental, DEFINITELY not for kids.

We saw this one last night- definitely have to agree that it's not for the kiddos. (some disturbing violence, with some threat to kids)

My husband says that he had the plot twist at the end all figured out but I didn't really until about halfway through. It's good and it was nice to see Morgan Freeman play a sinister bad guy rather than his good guy parts. I'm sure he enjoyed the part, too. Actually, it seems that all of the actors were enjoying themselves.

I'd recommend it.
