Just saw this movie, to me it was made very Torrentinoesque. Not a bad thing but to me the way the movie was shot just had that feel of Pulp Fiction/Jackie Brown.

Great cinematic shots of the Mediterranean coastline. Just some drop dead gorgeous scenes.

Ray Winstone and Ben Kingsly were fantastic. Although this is a British film and at some points I had to turn on the subtitles because I could not understand a word they said. Pretty heavy Cockny(sp?) accents. Ben is about as diverse as they come when it come to actors. I mean the guy played Ghandi, now he is dropping F-bombs and C-Bombs with the best of them, and just plain psychotic in this movie.

Not a bad rent. Do not know if I would buy it because of the accents are so damn thick.

I agree this movie needed subtitles, but every third word or so was enough to keep you in the movie. I wasn't sure about it at first, but the more I thought of talking to my co-workers like Ben Kingsley talked to Winstone, it made me laugh every time, so it's definetely worth it just for his character. I get along with them all, just the over-the-top'ness of it is a hoot. :p

"Dylan, is that project done? (Throwing my head forward) NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!"

LOL

Man you could seriously freak out your employee's talking to them like Ben. Just don't rip on their significant others like he did, it's apt to get you hurt!
