What a snap-crackling good movie


Great characters, great lines, and the plot just moves and moves and takes time to develop Jack's character.

And Serrano's constant insults keep things moving nicely, too. Along with the knucklehead gangsters, Mosley's reactions, Marvin constantly getting in the way

And of course, the Duke.

And the fantastic bluesy music.

Can't get enough of this movie.

Yup, this movie delivers on every level for me. It's a fun thrill ride from start to finish.


You want something corny? You got it!

Same here.

Easily one my all-time favorites.

Everything just... works.

Wait a minute... who am I here?

I saw it in a theater the day it came out. I had never heard of it, and had an afternoon to kill. Wow! What a ride. I was exhillirated (sp?) when I left the theater.
