Jerry Welbach is given two ultimatums. His mob boss wants him to travel to Mexico to get a priceless antique pistol called "The Mexican" or he will suffer the consequences. The other ultimatum comes from his girlfriend Samantha, who wants him to end his association with the mob. Jerry figures that being alive, although in trouble with his girlfriend is the better alternative so he heads south of the border. Finding the pistol is easy but getting it home is a whole other matter. The pistol supposedly carries a curse - a curse Jerry is given every reason to believe, especially when Samantha is held hostage by the gay hit man Leroy to ensure the safe return of the pistol.Actors

It’s okay if you have some time to kill.
Gandolfini was really good. The rest was dull, uninspired.
How can a movie with these two actors have been so bad? I don’t get it.
Sorry Brad and Julia
AHH, this movie actually sucked. It sucked! I think the script was about as good as "Freddy Got Fingered" it made no sense, and it wasn’t enertaining. I can’t believe such brilliant actors wasted their time in this movie. I wouldn’t recommend this film, infact don’t even rent it.
It’s a 4 with a +1 for originality…
Nice, Too long but Pitt and Roberts- do the job!
I liked the idea, cause it was original and also (maybe mostly) the actors cause they were certainly outstanding as usualy..
Julia Roberts was made for this character, there isn’t anything left to say - excellent actress!
Brad Pitt - was also good and defenetly suited his character… If it was a little bit shorter I would score it - 10, but it wasn’t so I’ll give it 7…
GO!
Yeah it was good, but it could’ve been much better
Decent
Consistently Funny, Excellent Cast
Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt are wonderful in this film. It is consistently funny, although it helps if you are numbed to violence. Not nearly so gory as Pulp Fiction, but with some of the same casual disregard for human life. The volume of murders is far less and not nearly so graphic, yet I would not recommend this film unless you definitely ARE numbed to violence. That said, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it, and laughed ourselves silly.
julia and brad..how cute
this movie, i hope, represents the last "Pulp Fiction" wannabe-movie.
please say it’s so.
I loved this movie. It was different and funny and just plain cool.
however, the other 6 people with me didn’t like it too much. i don’t know why. it was just too damn cool. it’s one i will buy as soon as i can.
now this is the sad part, i sit here writing this, and i can’t think about all the things i loved about it. i guess that’s what i get for waiting 3 days before trying to write this thing up.
i guess it was just a really fun ride. it kept twisting and turning and was just always finding ways to be funny and different.
bottom line, it was just cool.
