I've seen it a few times now...

And it gets better with every viewing! From Sarah Silverman getting punched in the face to the rich dialogue. And don't forget one of the most amazing shootouts ever filmed! Not my all time favorite film, but I can watch it anytime and not be bored!

Agreed. Didn't care for it much when it first came out, but now I really appreciate it.

Better than you think. The line is "three is gunplay". It assumes that return fire turns into a shootout, indicating the experience of Caan's character.

For sure, it stands the test of time and repetitive viewing. Still one of my favorite films full of quotable dialogue.
