The director scratched on this one..........2006-09-28
I was hoping this was going to be another awesome movie with great pool shots like "Poolhall Junkies" but if you're looking for that kind of movie from"Stickmen" then this is not the movie for you. Most of the pool table scenes are cut away camera shots, that is you see the player line up his shot and shoot and then the camera cuts to the view of the ball going into the pocket, so you can be pretty sure these guys can't play pool. Unfortunately neither can the director as he left two scenes in where the players clearly make push shot fouls on the cue ball. Seems the movie is more about the rules of pool and how they apply to your life, that is if your life is about beers, bars, and shagging. As one reviewer said the theme of the movie is old, and I found the acting, filming, and pool playing mediocrity at best. The only redeeming feature is the part played by Kirk Torrance who is cast in the role of narrator/quasi-villian which is why I gave this movie a two.
Indy Pool Film Rocks.......2006-02-24
Great dialogue, cool characters, beautiful women. Could have a little more pool shooting in it, but still, it's a fine movie.
Good movie, Lousy DVD.......2004-11-16
They botched this DVD release something fierce, it's a 4:3 Pan & Scan copy with Dolby 2.0 Surround, while Region 2 and Region 4 got nice 16:9 widescreen release with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound, Commentary track, behind the scenes footage and more for HALF THE PRICE!!! 9.99 EUR which is $12.93 at time of writing this.
If you can import the R2 or R4 version it's worth it. This version was a disappointment.
I love the movie, but way to let me down Monarch Video.
Good, but..........2004-08-03
This movie was pretty good. But it's impossible to NOT compare to Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. It's basically the same thing. Lock, Stock involved poker, Snatch had boxing, and this one is about pool. All of them with your stereo-type gangster that is trying to screw the heroes out of money and at the same type keep 'em down so they know who is boss. Eventually I'll buy this one, just have a bunch ahead in the list.
GREAT MOVIE!!!.......2004-07-15
My friends and I couldn't wait for this to be available in the US. We saw it in the theater in new zealand at least twice while visiting. Good movie about pool and guys. Decent soundtrack as well. High quality!
