Never underestimate the Underdog. Great Film

Haven't seen this in years, but I still remember Kevin Spacey did a great job

I shouldn't bother writing about this as it is my all time favourite film but hey . . . . Noir worthy of Raymond Chandler and Humphrey Bogart set in modern(ish) day America. Everything about it works perfectly although Spacey's performance is colossal. Also important to remember that writer Christopher McQuarrie (won the Oscar) and director Bryan Singer were both in their twenties when they made it. Astonishing.

I watched it with my mate Sneaky Pete. Neither of us had any idea but when it finally happened we were both screaming at the tv. Never seen anything quite like it before or since.

Sounds like a dodgy guy your mate. Any relation to Downstairs Dave?
