A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

(Flash Review)Not that Hollywood is always bad but this is super glossy, has big star power, has an overly engineered story and just feels trite. This movie has several twists, twists that cheat the audience as it doesn't really leave you any clues that you can trace back to earlier scenes; aside from the overarching plot arc which is abandoned for the majority of the movie. The granular twists come out of nowhere and you just have to go along with it, thus they weren't smartly interwoven into the script. And for a film with so many A-List actors, Hartnett is the main actor….Hartnett! and half the time he is wearing a towel and acting overly snarky. I'll give credit to the production crew and the cinematographer as the scenes looked bold and were visually striking however the pacing felt awkward. Overall, this tried to and succeeded in coming off cocky enough to think it outsmarted such classics as The Usual Suspects or SE7EN, for example, without giving you enough charm to care for any of the characters. In the end, I just cleared out some stale movie queue fodder which was only in their because the movie title was unique enough to stick with me from '06.

This movie is undeniably very entertaining. The main reasons are the cast, their as always great acting (referring to Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman and Ben Kingley), the gripping story line and the entertaining couple - Josh and Lucy Liu. In short cast was just perfect. I found Lucy Liu too cute in the movie and that also made those not so relevant scenes watchable. The plot was not all surprising - the climax I mean. I found it a little disappointing at first but with the Lucy Liu part embedded to it - it turned out fine. The Prologue gives the hint to what might have happened between Bruce Willis and Josh but nevertheless the story was definitely exciting. I liked Slevin a lot. The character was very entertaining and Josh seemed fit to play it. I didn't realize the time passing while watching it, which for me is a success. In the realm of suspense and thriller this is no masterpiece but it is worth a watch.

Lucky number Slevin is a film made to be a piece of art. Unlike other movies the idea is not to make you feel like you are in the movie or you feel the movie, the idea of the film is to excite you, intrigue you. The actor in the leading role was a perfect choice, the actor is charismatic, handsome and flawless in acting that role. Like a short introduction, the may be about the most unlucky guy on the planet, but you have to watch it to find out. The movie will maintain you in the suspense and you'll try to figure out the logic of the events. Is a movie which shouldn't miss from your watching list.In the end, if u didn't t seen the movie, watch it, you won t regret it.

Reading Reviews from Film Critics and Bloggers, 99% of these "Clever" Cinematic Connoisseurs will "Proudly" and Loudly Name Drop Tarantino's "Pulp Fiction" (1994), "The Usual Suspects" (1995) and then Go On and On about these Landmark Movies and how this one is a Pretentious Imitation.If You look up the Definition of "Classic", somewhere in there it will say "inspires imitation". Is it so Bad, then that the Writer and Director were Inspired and set out to Craft a Film of Their Own. Well, deal with it, They did, and it's a pretty Good Imitation.With an All-Star Cast and an "Artsy" Delivery there is much to be Admired and the Movie never fails to be Watchable as We travel down the Path forged by Better Films and the Entertainment Value is Solid. The Movie moves along with many Pop Culture References and Snappy Comebacks (more often than not resulting in an uncomfortable retaliation for the wise-cracking Protagonist).Sure, this thing might be Guilty of Trying Very Hard to Reflect Current Trends but it mostly Succeeds in making it an Above Average entry in the Neo-Noir Genre and if You can put Your Cynicism aside and just Enjoy the Ride it will most Likely be a Fun Time at the Movies where Style, Violence, Twists, and Talky Characters Reside.
