After the moving/lost cat fiasco, Snarl and I really weren't up for hitting the town. Gret's and Alysa and the other North Shore folk were heading into watch Mattie's band play in town. I had seen them quite a few times over the past couple months so I really wasn't too fused. The only thing was that Gret's is heading to France next week to work on a cruise ship and I won't be hitting the farewell party because I'm down to Palmy with Snarl for the weekend. After much harassment I almost caved and went until T-Rex pulled out a copy of "Lucky Number Slevin".
I had heard awesome stuff about this movie, but for some reason it hasn't come out here yet. For those of you who enjoy "The Usual Suspects", "They Game" and other thinking thrillers this one is for you. Josh Harnett stars as Slevin, an unlucky individual who, in a case of mistaken identity, is caught in the middle of a war between rival crime bosses (Morgan Freeman and Ben Kingsley). Slevin is also under constant surveillance by relentless Detective Brikowski (Stanley Tucci) as well as the infamous assassin Goodkat (Bruce Willis) and finds himself having to hatch his own ingenious plot to get them before they get him. While this movie is quite smart it does slow down a little in the middle. IMDB ranking of 7.4 is about right.
