Wow! Such a good movie.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I have trouble sitting through some movies. Many of the movies I see are the same as other movies....They keep doing the same thing over and over and change the peoples names and a few details and call it new.... This movie Jerry and Tom was a breath of fresh air, something different. It was well done and well cast and it was fresh with a different way of changing scenes, more like a carousel effect with sets blending into the next... BRAVO!!... I couldn't have a cast a better crew of characters, each one brought just what the needed to their role.The movie develops as a new hit man starts his training under the watchful eye of his teacher. We watch him grow through the years, from a young long haired hippie to a well groomed hit man.The humor throughout the movie by itself makes this movie worth watching, very subtle at times, and outrageously funny at other times.

There are moments of drama and irony in this film, but mostly it's a very well-written and well-acted comedy that is at times hilarious for the ease with which it captures icons and styles from other films while at the same time twisting and mocking them. There is some very cool, matter of fact dialog that brings home the idea of all jobs and actions creating their own reality around them and becoming mundane, no matter how unusual or dangerous the work. While making the viewer laugh, it also brings home the pain and horror the hit men create, especially when they don't behave professionally or fail to follow their own code of distorted ethics.

Oops. Another victim of the indoor winter warmth. (I fell asleep again.) Jerry and Tom seemed like a pleasant enough story but with a final catch which didn't really unfetter my disinterest. Sorry. Another video review*. I must get out more.Ron* Jerry and Tom went STRAIGHT to video in the UK. I add my weight to those who think this is inexplicable

Jerry and Tom is similar to Pulp Fiction, with many of the same silly dialogues about trivial things, followed by intense action as a mob movie. But some people might get tired of the nattering in these scenes, it didn't have the same power as Pulp, and nowhere near the power of The Money Kings, another recent mob movie with Peter Faulk. It's worth a rental as long as you don't get your hopes up too high.>
