Default The Movie Shade

I really loathe movies about hustlers where Guy X and Guy Y are hustling Guy Z, but Guy Z and Guy X are really working together, but Guy X doesnt know that its really Guy Z and Guy Y working together, then in the end, Guy X's Uncle, Guy P, comes back to save the day....

pulls the trigger.

That movie was really really bad. If somebody told you it was good they lied or they have horrible taste.

I liked the plot. I really like the slight of hand tricks that the actors actually did themselves. Also, the behind the scenes stuff was very interesting.

Better casting would have made this movie great. Having James Woods and Joe Montegna, to name two, would have upped the value incredibly.

Jack Nicholson, Tom Hanks, Robert DeNiro, Spencer Tracy, and Sir Laurence Olivier couldn't have saved this film.

This movie did enlighten me to the fact that apparently there is a market for kidnapping people and stealing their organs which you can make some good dough off of. I had no idea,I think I am losing touch.

Jamie Foxx was the only redeeming feature of the movie.

I like your view on this one. There is no way a human being could function properly with this much paranoia/deceit/quadruple crossing in his/her life without turning into a catatonic schizophrenic.
