i realize there are people who completely hate this movie and that's fine. however, i think this movie is just awesome. i don't know how else to say it. the plot moves along at a pace that's neither boring nor speedy. the twists are believable and christopher walken is (as always) a badass. this movie's rated well on here but still under rated. anyways, i just wanted to let that out there.

There is no theory of evolution, just a list of creatures Chuck Norris allows to live.

I completely agree. It's the kind of movie that you'd think would be in the Top 200 on this site. Nothing does better with IMDB users than smart crime movies, and along with Pulp Fiction, the Godfathers, and Memento, this is as smart as there is. The characters are great, the unfolding of the plot is interesting, and the ending is unpredictable. It's superior to Snatch., Mystic River, Heat, and many of the higher rated crime/mob movies. I enjoyed it more than Goodfellas, but I won't say it's superior because that comment is not worth the flack I'd take. A truly great movie!
