Lucky Number Slevin
Tue, 1 Apr 2014 | Review
by: Micky B
The overall plot set-up is, initially, the same as that used my the late Alfred Hitchcock in two of his films – namely the hero being sought by both the good and the bad guys as being someone he isn’t. In <i>The Wrong Man,</i> it was Henry Fonda. In <i>North by Northwest(which is referred to during this movie) it was Cary Grant. Here, it is Josh Hartnett’s turn. There are two feuding gang leaders, namely “The Boss” (Morgan Freeman) and “The Rabbi” (Ben Kinsley” who both wish that the man they mistakenly think is Slavin (Josh Hartnell) must be put out of the way…permanently! Then there is the mysterious Mr Goodkat.. He proves that he can take care of himself in a fight, but whose team is he on? And mention must be made of Lindsay (Lucy Liu) one of the Good Guys, who has the most natural-sounding infectious laugh I’ve heard in years.! Yes, it is a kind of up-to-date gang verses gang verses the police drama…with a few wild cards thrown in for good measure. And yes, we <i>do</i> get to learn where the name “Slevin” comes from!
