The Whole Nine Yards

"The Whole Nine Yards is one of the funniest films I have recently seen, and I can't wait for the video release. The film is about an unhappily married, underpaid dentist (Matthew Perry) whose next door neighbor is no other than Jimmy "The Tulip" Tudeski (Bruce Willis), an infamous contract killer out on parole. During the course of the film, everyone wants to kill someone, and no one can be trusted. There are some interesting twists, which makes the film unpredictable. The acting is great. The comic treat in this film is Matthew Perry; he's very funny and charismatic. Bruce Willis's acting, however, is a little restrained, but his powerful stage presence is more than enough; his portrayal of Tudeski is excellent. Amanda Peet is a scene-stealer in the film; her comic timing is precise. I also enjoyed Michael Clarke Duncan and Kevin Pollack in their supporting roles. The only blemish in the film is Roseanna Arquette -- what's with the phony French accent? Great film. A must-see!"

Friends meet The godfather

"The whole nine yards is a very good film, a truly entainting movie. It has a cocktail of comedy, action and a nice twist. The movie never really lets you get to grips with a possible ending, just as you think you have it figured out a gentle twist takes you away again.The movie includes a great cast, following the foot steps of Matthew Perry (tv's friends), along with Bruce Willis who plays a mob hit man. If I go into the story too much it'll spoil most of the twist for you, but this is a good movie, with Perry breaking it up very nicely with his trademark humour. This will be a great movie to add to your DVD collection."

Underappreciated mob movie

"Ever get the feeling that someone wants to kill you? If you have, you're sharing your paranoia (or maybe not, he he he), with dentist Nick Oseransky (played by the bumbling and adorably clumsy Matthew Perry). He has an awful wife (played by Roseanna Arquette) who chain smokes and plans absurd ways to make money. Suddenly, who moves in next door then Timmy 'the Tulip' Tedeski (played by the anyman actor Bruce Willis). Timmy used to be a contract killer for a Hungarian crime mob and this, as you can imagine, makes Nick a little nervous. But there's more, a lot more! I don't want to give any more away, I'll just say that there are great performances by Amanda Peet as a wanna-be contract killer, Micheal Clark Duncan as Freddie Friggs, one scary big guy, and Kevin Pollack as Vinny, another one of the guys invovled with getting 'the whole nine yards'. The thing that makes this movie great is great performances. I've never seen Matthew Perry better then here(except maybe on 'Friends, but that's another story)and as one of Amanda Peet's first movie roles, I thought she was pretty funny too. But still I say again that the stand-out was Matthew Perry. He's really a guy to watch. He reminded me a little of Kramer from 'Seinfeld'. Rent this movie and try it out. Keep in mind, it's not 'Godfather' or 'Goodfellas'. But it's definately a fun movie!"
