Lucky Number Slevin

Josh Hartnett, Lucy Liu

This was an uncomfortable attempt to meld comedy into a gangster film...but it wasn't at all funny and because they were trying to make it so there was no sense of menace in the gangsters either. So the film failed completely.

It didn't help that the main villains were played by Morgan Freeman and Ben Kingsley. These two guys have become way too familiar to take seriously anymore as cartoon bad guys. They even managed to shoehorn Bruce Willis in as a hit man/superman which made the production even more ludicrous.

Not worth it.
