A Flare Gun at the Final Shootout???

Was John Dillinger was shot in the eye or not????

"Seven Psychopaths" is a movie unlike your average Hollywood movie but it's hard to explain without giving too much away. There are plenty of twists, Tarantino-esque violence (which I loved especially after watching Django Unchained – The D is silent lol). However it was a pretty funny movie, well-written, superbly acted, engaging, provocative, and above all else, it has a humorous and witty dialogue.

Seven Psychopaths review

Marty - "And what do you think we should do in real life?" A concept similar to Get Shorty mixed with touches of Best in Show ang glimpses of Pulp Fictions writing.

Memorable q...

Review: Seven Psychopaths

Seven Psychopaths is a film I've been looking forward to for quite a while. This is mainly because of the talent involved, including Colin Farrell, Christopher Walken, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson, and the amazing writer/director Martin McDonagh, who made In Bruges. And... I loved it!

One of the many reasons why this is such a terrific entertainment is because of the countless energy McDonagh packs into his characters, the script, and the overall atmosphere of craziness he creates. The actors work so well with McDonagh and the script, and they make their characters incredibly likable, even if many of them are, well, psychopaths. The film reminds me of a Quentin Tarantino movie. Not in terms of directing style, but how the film is structured, how entertaining the dialogue is, and how...
