Prazer em Matar-te

I will agree that this movie is a lot of fun to watch,uncut that is, and I will go further and say that it was probably a hoot to be a part of the making of it as well. Lets face it some of these guys are not around anymore and this might have been one of their last laughs together. I for one found it exciting to have one last look at Henry Silva, Richard Pryor and Christopher Jones. Those last two by the way were in one of their first movies together as well, Wild In The Streets. Michael J. Pollard will always be seen in something. Kyle MacLachlan was probably in it just for the kicks. His performance seemed a bit over the top even for him. All in all I would have loved to have been an extra on this one but at least I got to see it.

... his version of "My Way" is hysterical (especially after I read somewhere that he truly thought - before he heard himself later - that it was Paul Anka that was out of tune and not himself!) and he gets all the best lines. That said, I thought Jeff Goldblum was also excellent - more understated than the rest of the characters which was a good foil for them.

The film is just simply great fun. It's not a classic, clever masterpiece of its time, but it is immensely enjoyable and well worth seeing at least once.

This movie is really great! Has everything in it, one can want. Action, romance, fun. I would recommend it to everybody, who likes that kind of movies! The acting is excellent, too. (Jeff Goldblum in one of his best parts, next to JP and ID4!)

If you are used to seeing Gabriel Byrne in serious roles such as Tom in Millers Crossing or Keaton in The Usual Suspects I recommend you take a look at this film. Even if you are not a fan of Gabriel Byrne in particular, all the actors in this film give really great performances. If you've got about eleven bucks (that is close to nine quid) I say order it online, or rent it from you favorite movie rental place. Guaranteed to make you laugh, whether or not you normally like gangster type movies. Mad Dog Time/Trigger Happy is one of those movies you never forget, and find yourself watching over and over. You will talk about it so much your friends will be begging to borrow it.

I love this movie. It's wacky, funny, violent, surreal, played out in a madman's head, and definitely not your usual comedy.

If you don't find the film amusing then I guess it's just not for your tastes, so this is a tough one to write a review for.

For reference, some other comedies I love are The Big Lebowski, The Princess Bride, and Zoolander (that one only got me the second time around). There are others, but my taste is definitely for the unusual, and I am willing to accept that most people just don't tend to like that kind of thing. I make no apologies for having an unusual sense of humour - at least I have one.

The scenes and characters of this particular movie are well put together, the verbal humour is hilarious, the situations are intriguing, the acting is very good (as you would expect of the cast), though the acting demands made of the cast by the script are not particularly high. The overall package makes for fun, funny, watchable yet violent entertainment.
