Never underestimate the Underdog. Great Film :)
 
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.
