10/10
Well made and subtle
1 June 2005
This movie has had me in its thrall since I first saw it 20 years ago. I agree with most of the other reviews I have read. I didn't even bother to see that Bruce Willis thing. I just want to call the two scenes Between Fox and Cusack to your attention as an example of this film's excellence. Two gentlemen, masters at their crafts, discuss an item to be made. The scene is quiet and low key. The older man could be making the younger man a suit, the questions he asks are matter of fact and to the point. The chilling thing is that they are discussing making a special gun, and those questions are not "Single or double breasted?", but "Will it be a head or body shot?" He doesn't care who this stranger is going to shoot. He just wants enough details so he can make the gun right for this purpose. It scared the daylights out of me when I first saw it.
