The wife and I finely got to this film. We both liked it very much, wonderful dark humor with some very convincing drama tossed in. Let me see if I can word this without spoilers . . . the way the characters were affected by the event that forced them to hideout was amazing and real, the older mans (Ken) affection for the younger man (Ray) was cool as well. Every moment of the film was well written and wonderfully acted, except the ending. Yes the ending worked but I felt the irony at the end to be a bit forced. Farrell did a GREAT job, best I have seen from him. I never got the idea that the older guy was gay, just Farrell's character busting his balls because he likes culture, history and fancy beer . . . this is what men do with men they like and respect. The affection between these two men was anything but sexual; they were partners with some history before they started working together as the older one brought the younger into the hit man busyness. To much of this thread was spent talking about other shit, I was hoping to read something about the film rather than a long argument comparing Farrell and some other actor . . . very disappointing thread as a whole . . . but I suppose they can’t all be winners, right . . . usually I learn something in these threads.
