...Almost immediately when the CDs start rolling, people start to cry. I think there are a bunch of reasons for that. One is that we live in a culture where we spend so much time kind of disconnected, quick messaging, or watching TV and all the screens in our house, the Blackberries, the computer screen, and it's kind of rare...for all of us to look someone in the eye and tell them you love them by listening to them. Just the act of someone saying, I want to hear about your life, moves people to tears almost...

Pastore, who is tough and sly, and Benjamin, who dresses effeminately and is highly intelligent, have great chemistry and witty banter on screen. Statham is a strong lead as well; however, the sub-par performance of his counterpart, Liotta, undercuts his performance. Liotta’s character is completely one-dimensional and boring. Perhaps to spice up Liotta’s character, Ritchie directs him to walk around nearly naked or showing...
