Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you have come across this flick. Today, 12/05/17, I am checking out the 1995 flick Get Shorty. It stars Gene Hackman, Rene Russo and Danny DeVito. "A mobster travels to Hollywood to collect a debt and discovers that the movie business is much the same as his current job." I decided to re-watch this flick after watching the new TV series. It currently has a rating of 6.9 with 66,798 votes.
- Man I wish I had the Italian look to constantly be in gangster flicks!
- This is when I really started like Travolta
- That is how I want go....in a cool hat and jacket!
- Danny DeVito produced this flick?
- Interesting writing this flick
- I forgot this flick has such a great cast of "bit" players and stars
- James Gandolfini looks weird with a ponytail!
- Look how young DeVito is!
- DAMN! Dennis Farina is HARDCORE
- And how great is Dennis Farina!
- I just realized I am not saying much because I am watching this flick; it really is engrossing
- Travolta is very close to the same character in every flick isn't he
- Travolta is constantly smoking in this flick, it is weird to see
- That is a horrible park job there Travolta
- Seriously DeVito looks so young!
- Bette Midler?
- This plot sure wouldn't work in this day and age!
- Miguel Sandoval is another great actor in this flick
- How did he get the gun on a plane?
- A lot of talk about "smelling" by DeVito's character
- Gandolfini's beard is great in this flick
- That is an awesome salmon jacket Farina wears; I should get one!
That is a fun flick. Not a lot to say about it really. Kind of weird writing; almost done in sound bites but fun. It shows how when you have a good/great cast that a movie is just fun. It really sucks you into.
Overall I think the IMDB rating has it about right with 7/10. Average flick with an above average cast.
