Editorial Review: Description: Down-on-his-luck Slevin stumbles into a running feud between two New York gangsters, The Boss and The Rabbi. Tracked by the mysterious assassin Goodkat and distracted by his flirtatious neighbor, Slevin must use his wits to cheat death. Amazon.com: How boring it is to label a movie Tarantino-esque anymore. The thing is, when it comes to an offering like Lucky Number Slevin, the shoe fits, and the result is anything but boring. Gruesome killings, arid wit, self-reflexive pop culture references, an A-list cast, and style-heavy production values abound, which gives the proceedings an epoxy bond that seals the Q.T. homage factor. Josh Hartnett--who spends a lot of buffed-up time with his shirt off--is Slevin Kelevra, a hapless fellow visiting his New York friend Nick. But Nick has disappeared, which sets off a mistaken-identity thrill ride when two goons grab Slevin (he's in Nick's apartment so he must be Nick) and take him to their crime lord boss, the Boss (Morgan Freeman). The Boss doesn't care about Slevin's wrong-man protests; he just wants the $96,000 Nick owes him. In one of many offers he can't refuse, Slevin has to agree to murder the son of the Boss's felonious arch rival, the Rabbi (Ben Kingsley) or take the bullet himself. But Slevin turns out to be no ordinary patsy. Thrown into the ingeniously designed production, clever plot twists, and academic nods to Bond, Hitchcock, and obscure old cartoons are Lucy Liu as a sexy coroner, Stanley Tucci as an obsessed cop, and Bruce Willis as a wily hit man with his finger in many pots. With so much visual and narrative trickery, there's almost too much to absorb in one viewing of this convoluted jigsaw puzzle of revenge and entertaining mayhem. Lucky Number Slevin isn't quite up to par with similarly brainy thrillers like Memento and The Usual Suspects, but the prospect of seeing it again in order to get your bearings is just as appealing.--Ted Fry Average Rating:
 Rating: - It was decent, if a bit overly polishedAs always, there is a limit to how bad anything Morgan Freeman appears in can be. He did a great job for his part, but there were some things that were a bit unexplained in the movie. Weak points: 1. What caused the schism between the two bosses? How did the timing work out so perfectly that the first boss knew that the second killed his son? 2. It is very easy for Bruce Willis to look cool, but it seems like his walking into a parking garage and shooting someone while in motion ...

Read More Rating: - Offbeat Twists and TurnsLucky Slevin is anything but conventional. As it begins, you are beginning to wonder if this is just another silly character film that goes nowhere. Even good actors (Willis, Freeman) make bad movies, right? But... if you are wiling to hang in there, "Lucky" turns from silly to powerfully focused and the twists are really quite unpredictable. When this one is over you will think, "Boy, better than I ever thought this would be!" Thumbs up! Rating: - Excellent crime thrillerCrime thriller in which a young man called Slevin Kelevra (played by Josh Hartnett) is mistaken for his friend Nick Fisher who owes two crime lords money. The crime lords - The Boss (played by Morgan Freeman) and The Rabbi (played by Ben Kingsley) - both demand payment within days from Slevin or else his life will be forfeit. However The Boss offers Slevin a way out of the debt owed to him: kill The Rabbi's son to avenge his own son's murder (which he believes The Rabbi was responsible for) and that ... Read More Rating:  - More Style than Substance? Maybe, But with this Much Style, it doesn't Matter!I was gifted this movie and my first thought was, "What the hell is a Slevin?", but thanks to its clever dialogue, tongue-in-cheek humor, and excellent actors, Slevin quickly made it onto my short-list of favorite films. This is a film that savors contrast, both in visual as well as narrative terms. Almost everything, from the wallpaper and floor tiles, to chessboards, and especially the central characters, suggests duality, light and dark, good and evil. The film itself goes from clever ...
