Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

gavin6942 Nick (Matthew Perry) is a struggling dentist in Canada. A new neighbor moves in, and he discovers that it is Jimmy "The Tulip" Teduski (Bruce Willis). His wife convinces him to go to Chicago and inform the mob boss who wants Jimmy dead.Bruce Willis as a hit-man? Yeah, it seems plausible given his tough guy roles. Matthew Perry as a luckless loser? Yep, makes even more sense (he definitely appeared in a series of odd romances). Together, they make a pretty good combination.While much of this is fairly predictable, it should be. This is not a deep, philosophical film about killing, but a light-hearted jaunt about contract murder and falsifying dental records. Should that be fun? Maybe not, but it is.

david-sarkies I think the term 'Black Comedy' best describes this film because it does not necessarily fall into the category of art-house, nor do I believe that it falls into the category of independent, though I would certainly not consider it your typical Hollywood film (an though it is set in Canada I believe it is basically an American films). The story is about a dentist named Oz who is married to a wife that makes one wonder if he is being punished for a crime that he committed in another life and is stuck paying off her father's debt that he inherited after her father committed suicide.Then a former hit-man who ratted out a Chicago mob boss moves in next door and she sees a double opportunity. First she could rat him out to the Chicago mob and collect on a finder's fee, and secondly (if that doesn't work out) she can hire him to kill Oz so she can collect on his life insurance. The problem is that she has already been trying to do this, and the last assassin she hired ended up liking Oz and could not bring herself around to killing him. As for Oz, while he is in Chicago he ends up meeting the hit-man's wife and falling in love with her, only to discover that the hit-man does not believe in divorce.This is a great movie that will have you in absolute stitches the first time you see it (and maybe the second time as well) however the problem is that it relies too much upon the many twists and turns and in the end, once you know what is going to happen, it ceases to be all that wonderful anymore. Unfortunately this film simply does not have the staying power that some of the other black comedies that I own have, and in fact it seems to have pretty much fallen to the wayside. In a way it is not like Pulp Fiction or Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, that have a cult following, but rather one of those films that you can say, oh, I remember that, and then move on to something else.

westinowich This movie is quite poor, in passages slow and quite unexciting and in general a quite poor actor performance, although a fair share of the cast are regarded movie stars. The plot and climax are both pretty, silly to say the least... HOWEVER all this being said it is most important for me too add that i somehow enjoy the movie. Some of the deliveries in the script are pretty funny and the whole situation built up around 'the tulip' (one of the main characters - portrayed by Willis) is very nicely depicted throughout the movie. The awkward and fearsome atmosphere is fairly well captured in the movie.The movie in general doesn't contribute with that much, and it IS pretty poor in general. But i can't help to be entertained by it.

leplatypus Well, after "Léon" and "Grosse Point Blank", hit-man movies are hot. Unlike the previous mentioned, this one is a pure comedy that is first successful by its cast: mixing some experts in comedy (Perry, Peet) with others who play against nature: Rosanna is cute as a dangerous desperate housewife and Willis plays a hit-man "à la" Brando in the "Godfather": no action, just a presence with his stare and words. The plot is imaginative with a lot of surprises and funny moments. Another good point is having Montréal as location because it's a refreshing change and as french is spoken there, the cast tries it as well. All this is done with an unknown director (at last for me) so this is finally a very good surprise!
