    My Favorite Brad Pitt Movie

    The Mexican really has it all. It has the feel of an old Western, mixed with gangster flicks and a nice romantic comedy. It's really entertaining and pleasing.

    Pitt plays a bumbling slacker gangster criminal dude who makes a mistake on a job, and is forced to undertake one last job. The gig is retrieving an ancient pistol. Little does he know he will have to go through great lengths to retrieve that pistol, and everyone around him may be feeding him lies to attain it as well.

    Pitt plays his character so well. It's fun watching him throughout the movie. He is what the slackers should look upto, and it's his best role yet. I couldn't suggest a better time in the cinematic world.

    Spend some time with this movie. You may regret it, but I liked it at least.

    A chaotic, messy but brilliant commentary on relationships

    I'm genuinely surprised at the number of people who disliked this movie. Perhaps because it was a bit disjointed, chaotic, uneven, unpredictable and even incoherent at times. And that's just why I loved it. It's life. Yes, it's the crazy, seedy, shady lives of these people (the main characters being Pitt's and Roberts' characters), but at least it's honest... and darned funny. I thought the self-deprecating jabs at how most Gringos view Mexico/Mexicans were priceless. Raul!! The grainy flashbacks had my sides splitting.

    People, this is a classic melodrama told in today's yucky, dirty, gritty, ugly times. A beautiful (if you look closely) story that doesn't take it self seriously at all. This is anything but formula Hollywood hype. It is a genius inside-joke that sandbagged most of the people hoping to come out and see a Pitt/Roberts version of Sleeping in Seattle or some similar chick-flick dreck.

    When is enough enough? Never.

    Roberts Ruined It

    GOOD - Story was interesting the first time around.....loved the cinematography; nice Mexican scenery.... liked Brad Pitt's dialog and his character was fun to watch.....enjoyed the few side-bits with the dog and was surprised when Gene Hackman showed up late in the film.

    BAD - Julia Roberts ruined this film, at least by the second viewing. She was either yelling at Pitt all the time or gushing over a hit-man who admitted he was gay, and both routines wore thin. She thought (being gay) that was just the greatest thing and really overdid it.

    Overall, if you modified Roberts' character into someone less abrasive this might have been a "keeper."

    A Misfire of Mismatched Tones

    Gore Verbinski's "The Mexican" (2001) attempts to blend a quirky road trip comedy with a crime thriller, but ultimately falls flat, delivering a lukewarm and utterly unmemorable cinematic experience. The film suffers from a severe lack of narrative cohesion, meandering aimlessly between its comedic elements and moments of genuine peril without ever truly committing to either. The supposed "charming" interactions between the characters, despite the star power of Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt, feel forced and contrived, lacking the genuine spark necessary to engage the audience. The dialogue, often laden with repetitive bickering and uninspired attempts at humor, feels painfully artificial, as if the writers simply strung together a series of disjointed scenes without any regard for natural conversation or consistent tone. Instead of a fresh and engaging genre blend, it offers a superficial and often irritating spectacle of mismatched intentions.

    Is it worth watching? No, unless you have an exceptionally high tolerance for tonal inconsistency and a desire to see talented actors wasted in a meandering plot. There are far more cohesive and entertaining crime comedies available.

    I had a very good time watching this movie

    Personally I had a very good time watching this movie, but it seems like I'm one of the few. I don't know why, but the voters on this website always seem to hate comedies if they aren't from the hand of some cult-director. Does a movie always have to be a great drama or an exciting thriller? Not if you ask me, but I'm only one of many over here of course.

    It's true, the movie is a little chaotic from time to time. It isn't an overproduced Hollywood movie that takes itself too serious and that's exactly where its charm is in it for me. I loved to see Brad Pitt as the clumsy criminal who always is able to do something wrong. The same for Julia Roberts as his hysterical girlfriend and James Gandolfini as the gay hit man who has kidnapped her.

    I know, it's not done to say that you liked to see Julia Roberts play a certain role and Brad Pitt can never be good as a comical actor... Well, perhaps it is time for some people to broaden their minds. Don't believe what everybody says, watch it for yourself and form your own opinion. I liked it and I give it an 8/10.

      The casting choice of James Gandolfini as Leroy was Julia Roberts' idea.

      When Jerry and Sam are driving from the airport to the Mexican hotel towards the end of the film, parts of a camera are reflected in the car window.
    • Zitate

      Leroy: I have to ask you a question... and it's an important one so, I want you to think about the answer before you give it to me. Okay?

      Samantha: Okay

      Leroy: When two people love each other - Really... Love each other - but they just can't get it together, when do you get to that point where enough is enough?

      Samantha: [mouth agape, stunned look, realizing he's talking about her] Tha?... oh, well... that's... you know... um... you know it's Over when... okay, I have, like, these psychosomatic, insomniatic manifestations of... uh, well here's the thing about me: I'm a product of my emotions, versus being a product of my environment, like HIM, which he is, exactly, just THAT, environmental... uh uh I need sunshine to grow; that's who I am, and uh with the projection of the... I have goals

      [pause, smiles, nods to indicate she's done]

      Leroy: That's your answer?

      Samantha: Yah

      Leroy: That's not right. I mean, there's a right answer here, but that's not it

      Samantha: [exhales sharply]

      Leroy: Look, in my business you're surrounded by loneliness, and finality. Now I don't care what your take is on an afterlife, when people die, it's scary. And they go alone. Now the people that I send off, that have experienced love, they're a little less scared. I mean they're still scared, but there's... a calmness to 'em, and I think that comes from the knowledge that somebody, somewhere loved 'em, and cared for 'em, and will miss 'em. Now I see that from time to time, and I am awed by it. I don't think I'd be telling you any of this if it wasn't for Frank. Anyway, it's a loaded question. Look, when two people love each other - Totally, TRUTHfully, all the way Love each other - the answer to that question is simple, especially in your case. When do you get to that point where enough is enough? Never... Never
