The Good:
The film seemed very much to change mood in a subtle manner as the plot progressed, from a quirky comedy of errors to a more serious film.
The acting was good if a bit subdued, fitting the story.
Lucy Liu was so beautiful in this movie, both in personality and physically, every time she smiled I smiled
Ben Kingsley and Morgan Freeman and Bruce Willis.
Parts were quite funny, not laugh out laugh funny, more situational comedy funny.
I enjoy when characters in movies are called generic names like "The Boss" and "The Rabbi".
The Bad:
I was expecting more of an action movie.
Some of the plot was... well a stretch.
Something about the the directing of the film was a little sleepy, I can't put my finger on it, but it seemed to become syrup in the middle.
Overall: It was one of those multi-party multi-motive noir style modern films. I would tell this movie to Be Cool, but it wasn't that funny. I will admit it wasn't one of The Usual Suspects, but I think you are getting the idea.
