Did not care for this film

That's ok. It's not for everyone.

Let's be bad guys.

"I put it in the same category as Reservoir Dogs, a great cast with a lousy script. Anyone agree?"

No.

please don't review another movie again

The action is all there - verbal violence,slashing insults, macho horn-locking, fear, provocation, desperation, murderous anger - it's in the hearts of the different characters and its the words that have done it. If you imagine you were there on the receiving end of all that verbal abuse and can feel some part of what they are feeling, it's a very battering experience. If you simply watch and listen, I agree its just words. It is perhaps a guy thing - the Baldwin character is so provoking his listeners that in normal life they would have hit him but here, he has power and they want to keep their jobs so they just have to take it

I saw it in the movies when it came out I think '91/'92? I forget, I'm now 42. My old man dragged me to see it, I was 17, I didn't mind it, but I didn't fully appreciate it, meaning I didn't really understand the "adult" *beep* Watching it now, I mean yeah, it's not an action movie, it may not move fast, but that's just not what it's supposed to be. The acting & dialogue is really 2nd to absolutely none. Also I think it's what put Spacey on the "map", only 2 years later he played that all to famous 'infamous' Keyser So?e.

I thought it was a 6/10 but I do find Reservoir Dogs to be much better.

I didn't care for the dialog in this, it didn't feel natural at all, it felt like stage acting, almost Shakespearian to me. It doesn't matter that all of them are *beep* that can work, but I need to be interested in what they say and importantly how they say it. What they said was good, but how they said it felt like lecture after lecture instead of natural dialog. One extended monolog after another that felt stilted with the opposite actors doing little to nothing. Spacey just stood there and listened pretty much.

The actors were good, the plot seemed fine as well to me, but I definitely don't think it deserves high praise for anything other than nostalgia reasons and I have enjoyed many dialog driven movies. Like "12 angry men" or yes, "Reservoir Dogs".

"You'll be taking a soul train straight to a disco inferno where you never can say goodbye!"

I personally love dialogue-driven movies, and character-driven movies the most. Movies that mainly focus on great dialogue or movies that feature greatly-written characters who are then played by powerful actors. If it combines the two, then an even greater plus.

I think that's the reason why this is one of my favorite movies. It has great dialogue and great characters and great acting.

People like my older brother, however, are not such a fan of movies like this. He likes movies with intriguing plots, where they do more than just talk. Not necessarily action-packed, but where things happen. Of course, he appreciates good acting and dialogue as much as the other guy, but if those are not supported by a great plot then he tends to not like them. He hated There Will Be Blood and this movie, but loved Reservoir Dogs and The Godfather (I love all 4 of these movies). All 4 of those movies are heavily dialogue and character-driven, but the latter also contain a moving plot with lots of things happening. The former, not so much.

It's just opinions, and no one can say that your taste in movies is wrong.

Wendy? Darling? Light, of my life!

I found it to be very boring. I put it in the same category as Reservoir Dogs, a great cast with a lousy script. Anyone agree?
