Final appearance of actor M
Synopsis
Two criminal twin brothers, one of whom is trying to make a comeback, embark on a dangerous heist. Facing legal issues, gunfights, and family drama, they must reconcile their differences before their mission leads to their self-destruction.
Emmet Walsh (Judge Farful) in the film
(March 22, 1935 – March 19, 2024) With such a great cast, people could have expected a lot more from this film. I don’t think they thought they made a masterpiece, just a fun action comedy.
I understand the disappointment some people might have with this film
If you’re not judging it as a critic and just judging by the overall viewing experience, I feel like it was definitely above average these days. Parts were cheesy and crude, but for the early 2000s I found it to be a light watch and enjoyed the performances of the actors involved.
Some parts are a bit formulaic
I definitely think it wasn’t meant to be art (film), just a film (entertainment). Which is perfectly normal, because as much as people want great movies, there are plenty of people who just want to sit back and watch a fun movie.
