When the young Quick shoots the enraged gambler in the head, his shot is shown striking him squarely in the man's forehead. Given Quick's height, the man's height and Quick's location vis-a-vis the man, this was not possible. Quick is both too short and too close to the man to have made the shot. See more »

Yeah, yeah this movie is full of profanity and I see other users saying that Eddie couldnt decide if it was a comedy, drama, etc. I personally thought the movie was hilarious and quite clever. I never really thought it was anything other than a comedy. Tell me how a movie this good gets a rating of 4.8, when an awful movie like The Thomas Crown Affair (the remake) gets a 7.0!!! Try this everyone, sit down, relax and don't try to "read" anything into this movie......just enjoy it...
