Review of Lucky Number Slevin (2006) by Russell G — 15 Sep 2012
It is a compelling movie that wastes no time at all and gets right into an exciting and complicated situation of a mistaken identity. The story is excellent and continues to move well, keeping you on your toes the whole time.
It successfully layers in an intricate set of characters and provides good misdirection and plot twists. It really succeeds in divulging the right amount of information at the right time and provides for some dramatic surprises that are highly rewarding.
The cast is very strong; Bruce Willis, Ben Kingsley and Morgan Freeman are excellent actors and they all bring their A game. I was impressed and surprised how well Lucy Liu or Josh Hartnett both pulled their own weight in this loaded cast.
They both did a great job and this is the strongest performance of both of their careers. It is an excellent movie with an intricate plot, crafty dialogue, excellent acting, solid direction, a good soundtrack, and a strong sense of mystery.
