Cast: Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, Lucy Liu
Director: Paul McGuigan
A crime drama with comedic undertones pits two crime bosses against one another with the wrong man in the middle. Nick played by Josh Hartnett is the mistaken man who owes two crime bosses money The Boss (Morgan Freeman)and The Rabbi(Ben Kingsley). To fix the situation he has to kill The Rabbis son. The first few minutes of the movie quickly pile up bodies and the viewer is not really sure what is going on. As time goes on the story unfolds and Hartnett is not the naive person he comes to play. A different twist on the crime story with times a little corny but entertaining. Bruce Willis plays the quintessential cool bad ass hitman whose role you only find out about near the end. It seems its either a hitman or cop for Willis these days but he plays it well. Lucy Liu plays a quirky neighbor who seems a little desperate for love and finds him in the first few minutes in Hartnett, sorry guys no nudity.
