Review of Gangster No. 1 (2000) by Lyle R — 23 Oct 2008
I really liked it. I am sure it is lumped in with Guy Ritchie movies and layer Cake and others, but it has a dark humor to it and style that probably keeps it with Ritchie. I can say that I like it more than LSTSB but not as much as Snatch.
The movie is 4 stars because of great performances and style. The middle murder is stunning and the visual flair in some stoic scenes is nice. However, it doesn't develop like I would have enjoyed in act 2. The turn seems forced. And it didn't sell me in the beginning because it seemed so over the top. But its worth waiting for.
