Review of Smokin' Aces (2006) by Al S — 10 Jan 2010
It's one wildly entertaining and original thriller. Its an intense, hard-core, explosive, gritty, brutally shocking and a red-hot psycho roller-coaster ride. Smart, stylish, original, frequently funny and totally over the top.
Filled with explosive action and mind-blowing suspense that will knock you out. An energetic bloodbath that just keeps getting better. A fantastic cast of first-rate talents. Jeremy Piven is electrifying.
Ryan Reynolds is a pure knockout. Andy Garcia is terrific. The cast is outstanding. Riveting and exhilarating. A pure guilty pleasure. An awesome adrenaline-rush. It has surprising human affection. Director, Joe Carnahan has taken his style in directing to create a high-octane, barrels blazing classic with a rhythm all of it's own.
It thrives on chaos like Tony Scott's Domino or Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers.
