Blue Iguana

If you like Monty Python, if you like insanity and swearing, if you like mullets and cockney accents then this movie is for you.

There are some lines in This film that are so rude but most importantly funny in a british way that I DARE YOU not to laugh, its not intellectual humour its SILLY HUMOUR.

THE BEST OF BRITISH SILLINESS!

Blue Iguana wears it's Guy Ritchie and Tarantino influences on it's sleeve, and, at first glance seems like it's just a rehash of those genre hits. Not so.

"Blue Iguana" has an unpredictably gonzo script that weaves in and out of violence, romance and absurdity with ease. It features a brilliant cast: Rockwell, the always hilarious Schwartz, Fox and the supporting cast; all are pitch perfect, (especially Schwartz, who's character could come off as annoying - he plays the part with just enough silliness mixed with seriousness - is instead endearing and absolutely entertaining). Hadi Hajaig, directing as well as writing, keeps everything taut, interesting and fluid. This is the rare genre pic that not only subverts the genre - but does it better. A truly unique and memorable film that's worth seeking out. Here's hoping this isn't the last we've seen of this motley crew.

This film is way out there nuts, every second of it is filled with such great weirdness that I could not help but laugh.

The real star of this movie though is the British woman who plays Katherine, Phoebe Fox, so understated and very funny.

I loved how she manipulated all the characters and was the real hero, LIKE A BOSS!

Has any Sam Rockwell project ever failed to deliver? Thought not.

Right in his smarmy, slovenly, charming wheelhouse, Rockwell carries this messy British backstabbing caper with a whiplash plot, a steady stream of ridiculous characters, plenty of yuks and plenty of blood.

How about a romantic interest who is an abominably messy eater? How about a snappy, chirpy wingman who carries a tampon for the inevitable bullet hole plug? How about a wild-eyed antagonist who sports a gloriously greasy mullet? No more spoilers. Suffice to say, there's plenty here to devour.

There's a big blue diamond at the centre of all the troubles, but that merely serves as a simple table setter for all the tomfoolery. What starts as an absurdist comedic heist, quickly turns to dangerous levels where everyone seems over their heads. Among the many small highlights littering this movie, is a chaotic pub shoot out where bottles and glasses are the chief victims. Turns out the Brits are terrible, terrible shots.

There's plenty of holes in the plot, but the free flowing vibe saves the day. Stop trying to make any sense of "Blue Iguana", and just enjoy the trip.

This is a heist movie. Nuff said. The same old tired story of "a crew" who need to steal the big stone from another crew, with twists and turns that, not unlike a long road with no turnings, are pretty predictable from the get go. However, the actors shine in it, even the supporting cast is great, so in the end is just entertaining. Dumb, but fun. Even so, while I love Sam Rockwell and he was great in this, too, some of the unknown actors shone brightest. Ben Schwartz and Peter Ferdinando were great.

Now, the script was not bad, it's just that this particular genre feels really tired and stupid to me. As a heist film it was probably OK. I just wanted something that made a little more sense, story wise.
