A Nearly Perfect Movie


***SPOILERS HERE...SORT OF!!!***

The Limey: a great story with masterful dialogue and a brilliant performance from Stamp. I can understand some of the minor nitpicking I've read here and there, like about the DEA letting Stacy and his flunkie go free. But after thinking about the film a great deal, I think all of it really makes sense. The DEA was going rogue, after all, but in a "good" way. The only issue I have with the film is that the ending felt a bit rushed. I would've loved another plot point to develop, but that's probably because I loved watching Wilson and listening to his dialogue. I just watched it again on SHOWTIME and could watch it straight through again right away.
