<div class="IPBDescription">a great flick</div>Last night I went to go see Matchstick Men. It was a great movie, even better than I thought it'd be. Quite funny in certain areas. It also has a very interesting storyline and the ending is, well you'll see...

    Big up to the legend that is Ridley Scott!
    I'll have to check it out <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah...I'd see it...but I kinda have this....<i>thing</i> with Nicholas Cage. Every time I see him I get the impulse to disembowel myself <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Alison Lohman graduated from the High School I'm going to now. But I'm still not going to see the movie. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Heh, I saw it because they wouldn't let me into Once upon a time in Mexico ... turned out to be very good! Nice storyline, very funny.'

    And is anyone else besides me starting to be dumbstruck and just say "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" a bunch of times when thinking? (from the "shame on you!" part)

    Watch Face/Off, and all this will change.

    Nick Cage is my absolute favorite actor. I need movie tickets, now. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Alison Lohman (person who plays the 14 year old daughter) is 23.

    It's a good movie, although a certain part really **** with my head. As a con/heist movie, I liked Ocean's 11 better. As a non-con/heist movie, Matchstick Men is damn good.

    I can't stand Nicolas Cage, but that doesn't stop Face/Off, Con Air and The Rock from being bonafide classics <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Raising Arizona. Another Cage classic. And I think thats the movie that kinda got him started.

    My English teacher who had her as a student described her as "really short." I believe she hardly reaches my chest (I'm 6'4).

    I've heard only good things about Matchstick Men. I want to see it desperately, but when I was home...none of my friends wanted to see it.


    Also, <i>Confidence</i> is another great con film.

    is this movie really all that good? (it doesn't look like my kind of movie..) what genre does it fall under?

    Its labelled as a Comedy/Drama which I guess is kinda accurate. Its just a really good movie with a very interesting storyline (and somewhat complicated, but only enough to draw you into it more, not turn you away), some funny bits, and some not-so-funny bits.

    I thought it was really good.
    I saw it lastnight along with T3 RotM at the drive-in.
    But I knew how it was going to end from that 1 sceen in the bank when she comes in with him.
