A film that I vaguely remember coming out, and the only reason I watched it was because I was looking for a film with a twist at the end. Luckily there's lists for just about everything on here! This film was directed by Paul McGuigan, and starred Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, and Ben Kingsley.

The plot.... well it's quite a twisty and turney affair, but to put it in simple words - a man called Slevin, due to a case of mistaken identity, lands himself in the middle of a war between two aging gang bosses. If you want to know more then you'll have to watch it as I don't really want to give too much away.…

Lucky Number Slevin was released in 2006 and is directed by Paul McGugan. The film has an all star cast including: Bruce Willis (Sixth Sense, Die Hard), Morgan Freeman (The Dark Knight Trilogy, Seven), Ben Kingsley (Iron Man 3, Shutter Island), Lucy Liu (Kill Bill, Kung Fu Panda), Josh Hartnett (Pearl Harbour, Black Hawk Down) and Stanley Tucci (The Hunger Games, Transformers: Age of Extinction).

In this film the protagonist Slevin played by Josh Hartnett is having possibly one of the worst days of his life. His girlfriend cheats on him, he gets mugged and finds himself in his friend Nick Fisher’s apartment, only to find he is nowhere to be seen. Once Nick’s neighbour Lindsey appears for some sugar,…

Lately I have been spending so much time moving my website to another web provider that I have not been able to secure any new movies to watch. So I have had to re-watch DVDs from my own collection. Tonight I picked Lucky Number Slevin to re-watch. This is one of my favorite Bruce Willis movies.

This is one fun puzzle to put together. Gangsters, assassins, dirty cops, an innocent by-stander and a sexy Lucy Liu make up the pieces of the puzzle. To explain the movie anymore would take away some of the joy of the movie. I do have some quick non-spoiler thoughts about the movie.

1. Bruce is a badass in this movie....or as he says...."A worldclass…

Slevin: "I'm gonna say the same thing any man with two penises says when his tailor asks him if he dresses to the right or left."
Lindsey: "What's that?"
Slevin: "Yes."

Lucky Number Slevin is an absurdly mixed bag, that despite its shortcomings, and - by the end - tonal inconsistencies really stands out as a grifter/gangster/mystery/black comedy that we've seldom seen.

Its stylish. Really stylish. I would say almost on an Edgar Wright level of stylish and comedic storytelling. The dialogue is so incredibly snappy, the editing is so fluent and aggressive, and the mystery is so tightly knitted, making you wonder about how every single object and character correlates to the grander picture.

I'm bringing up Edgar Wright…
