Review of The Matador (2005) by Scott D — 11 Nov 2011

I wasn't expecting to like this movie as much as I did. It's an offbeat comedy that focuses largely on two characters, one a middle-aged hitman and the other a down-on-his-luck businessman, excellently portrayed by Pierce Brosnan and Greg Kinnear.

I hesitate to even call this a comedy, because it just feels different than a lot of other films that are in the box office lately. It's also filled with some interesting twists, and it was good to see characters affect each other and evolve throughout the movie.

It also leaves you with a nice feeling at the end. Check it out some time and you'll be pleasantly entertained.
