Lucky Number Slevin (2006). This case of mistaken identity will keep the viewer guessing until the end. At one point i was all full of myself having figured something out, only to find that i was sucker punched by falling for the bait. The biggest complaint would be the beginning is a bit fast paced. Learn to keep up people! This is a witty, dark, at times cute, and ultimately stylish flick for the guy that can keep up. The cast was sublime, and everybody did their jobs perfectly. Lead Josh Hartnett killed his part, keeping everybody guessing 'till the end. The dialogue was fun and witty, the story was awesome, and the direction was great. The cinematography was at time playful and then frenetic, especially when increasing the body count. Don't worry for those that cannot keep up, the ending will literally be spelled out you. The only thing that was not up to par was the forced Hollywood ending. But we can live with that when everything else was so freaking grand. Ashe.
