This is a movie that appealed to me and has repeatedly done so. Nostalgia, soundtrack, the idea, the execution and in my opinion, Cusack was at the top of his game. The whole hitman nervously in love theme was a winner for me.
I couldn't believe how powerful, disturbing and original Kingsley's performance was. It is haunting to watch. I really liked the movie, story, acting and feel of this flick. It's not pretty, heartwarming, compromising and a ratings chaser, which makes it special by comparison to thousands of other wannabes. At times, it took my breath away.
It's a lovely movie that could make grown men weep. The top notch cast carries it through and it's easy to disregard the holes in the story. The last 20 minutes lost its way for me. The emotional intent, good acting and script seemed to have got jumbled up. But that's just how I viewed it.
