Keep in mind, even De Palma has made a few bad films. Take "Mission to Mars" for example (possibly the worst film EVER made), which wasn't even De Palmas first film (made in 2002 - this was his 32nd movie) and it was made AFTER such classics as Carlito's Way, Scarface and Carrie! And then there's "Phantom Of The Paradise" (an absolutely, utterly, indescribably horrible movie), but there are still people that call it a "Classic".
This is Trevor Kings first film (ever). Sure, he borrowed a little from "Resevoir Dogs", but then all that Tarantino did was rip-off De Palma (who ripped off Alfred Hitchcock) - and look where he is now. Trevor King obviously has a passion for film making, he just hasn't defined his own genre yet. With a little more experience he will refine his art and one day "Sharkskin 6" may be considered a classic (like "Phantom Of The Paradise" is now).

I thought this film was great! It breaks the formula rule you see in most films today and also combines comedy and drama. It takes place in a crazy retro world with gangsters and retro clothing. It's like Hairspray meets Goodfellas. I also liked the effects that were used. I thought Shadoe Stevens was very funny as the game-show host and action sequences were very cool.
Ray Wise was great! The cast had a lot of good characters. Well worth the price. I read online that the Director Trevor King will be doing a bigger budget film soon, I hope he keeps the cool vibe that this one has and the retro style.
Check it out!

Crime is life. Laughter is life. Brotherhood is life. This movie has all of that and more. It looks at the pragmatic side of the crime business (what - you thought wise-guys spend all of their time sitting around eating spaghetti while polishing their machine guns?). It's thoroughly enjoyable.
The new "Rat Pack" live, plot, plunder, and endure. Don't miss it. It's real.
The action is nicely paced with real conversations, human imperfections, and a healthy dose of humor as it occurs. The violent scenes are not too gory. Violence is immediate and permanent and the film moves on - as we do in real life.
The director, cast, and crew did a terrific job at entertaining us.
Did I say it's real? real life...real violence...real comedy...real good...See it!

I cannot believe there are any favorable comments about this monstrosity of a film. Obviously the director must have plenty of time on his hands to add these reviews as probably no-one will hire him now! The acting, script and 'jokes' were just too embarrassing and painful to watch. There was no plot and the ending is such a poor rip-off from Reservoir Dogs. If there was a window in my room, I would have thrown myself out of it. There needs to be a public health warning on this film - as I'm furious that I was led to believe that this pile of crap was 'decent'. This is the worst 'movie' I've ever seen and I have seen a lot of movies in my time (including Bollywood!!!)

If you haven't seen it find it! The story is great and the actors make you get attached to them... I can't wait to see it again on the big screen.... This film is filled with cool camera shots and lots of laughs! The story is magnificent and contains heavy action. This movie keeps you thinking about what's going to happen next. The director really did a good job of capturing these peoples emotions on film. Once you see it I know you'll go and tell someone else about it. Some of the scenes in this movie catch you completely off guard. This movie has a lot to offer for those who get a chance to see it. In my opinion it can hang with the best of them any day!
