2006 / Paul McGuigan > I’m not sure why I’ve heard so many complaints about this film “tricking” the viewer, since it was fairly obvious from the opening sequence that something fishy was going on. But as I let myself delve into the fantasyworld that was occupied by a very revived Josh Hartnett, I found time slipping past me. Well edited with gorgeous cinematography, Lucky Number Slevin is hands down the biggest surprise (on the upside) I’ve had in a film this year. This is not for those who always want to know what’s going on, but perfect for those willing to give in and indulge what the new Hollywood has to offer. A perfect antithesis to megabores such as Poseidon, LSL is definitely worth a watch for its creativity and no-nonsense mindset.
