Movie Review: The LadyKillers


The Ladykillers (2004) At the urging of several friends I am offically beginning my Movie Review career tonight. At least, I'm beginning to write down what they get an ear full every morning around the water cooler/coffee pot. Tonight's review is of "The Ladykillers" starring Tom Hanks. Review? I liked it. I'd recommend it. It's a Coen brother's film which means its required viewing material for me, buy not necessarily a automatic hit. It's a fun crime comedy in which Hanks plays a southern gentlemen characture/criminal mastermind of a gang of offbeat, part-time criminals/losers. It has some great slapstick and a rollercoster finale'. Not the Coen's best work. I won't be quoting from this one like I did "O, Brother" for six months... ok 3+ years now? "I detect, like me, you're endowed with the gift of gab" I love that film.. I just like this one.
PS. For those who don't know IMDB, THE INTERNET MOVIE DATABASE... use it to A) answer any silly movie trivia question and B) answer those "oh whatwashisname in the movie whatchamacallit" questions that keep you up all night. Ok, that keep me up all night...
