since i watched the wrestler i've been on a kick of renting mickey rourke movies and aside from the wrestler i'd say this is his best performance i've seen so far. he was just so good in this movie. he shows so much emotion and still pulls off the whole tuff guy bad ass thing. mickey rourke is effing cool man.
the guy who plays bullet's older brother also really stands out to me. he definitely had crazy, paranoid war vet down.
and bullet's best friend was funny as hell. what a joke.
i heard mixed reviews about this movie so i decided to go in without expecting much and i was pleasantly surprised. i really enjoyed it.
it's not a feel good movie. it has lots of funny bits (for those of us with a sick sense of humor) but at the same time it is quite serious and i think people can learn from it. it may sound cool to be hard and tuff but watch this movie. i think the main intention of the movie was to show kids what street life can do to people (which of course had been done before in other films but its still good).
anyway... they say that this one of mickey rourke's few good moments in that point of his acting career and i would definitely encourage people to check it out.

i don't care about the haters. this movie is fun and hilarious.
unrealistic? yes. some movies are unrealistic and the unrealisticness makes them all the more enjoyable to watch.
rip-offs? yes. this movie is a combination of movies i've seen before. all movies that i've enjoyed watching... such as animal house, superbad, American pie (including sequels and spin offs) , etc... good artists borrow. great artists steal.
so if you use clichés from other popular party movies and put it with an original story you come out with something thats really fun to watch. especially if your drunk.
my suggestion is to watch it with some buddies and a cooler full of beer for a good old drunken laugh.
this is not a great movie. this is a great party movie. so don't take it too seriously. please understand that.
and my two favorite characters are carter and bearcat... i don't care what anyone says, they are f***ing hilarious.
