*ing: Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Robert Musgrave, Lumi Cavazos
Genre: Drama, Romance, Comedy, Crime
I am little undecided on this film. I have not been able to make up my mind if I really liked this movie or not so really liked it as in like to the extent of recommending and singing all praise. Generally speaking ... I really liked Bottle Rocket for what it is, I liked the somewhat unconventional screenplay, mediocre direction and a pretty decent display of acting by Luke Wilson and Owen Wilson the two of them really do a decent job of keeping the audience entertained and interested. However, the movie starts with some sorta bang ... things are happening all over the place and then somewhere mid-way it seems the screenplay, the director, the actors, the entire unit behind making the film ran out of steam but somehow managed to jump back on to the tracks and deliver a pretty decent and convincing enough ending. Now ... that is my problem ... starts good, ends good but gets lost somewhere mid-way and that is the reason why I still undecided on this one. But ... I being a generous soul will give this flick a Thumbs Up for whatever it is.
BTW, if you are wondering what the film is all about ... well ... one nervous wreck Anthony (Luke Wilson) gets out of a correction institute and happens to rendezvous with his friend Dignan (Owen Wilson). Dignan has been planning a heist and he keeps plotting this rather stupid heists thru the flick getting his friend Anthony involved in his plans to carry out a heist to impress the bad guy. Anthony is not so willing but somehow always is a part of Dignan's plans. A lot of things happen in between the movie anyway ... towards the the end the duo impress the big bad guy and hatch a big heist ... needless to mention ... nothing goes as per Dignan's plans.
Bottom-line: I am not sure, I am a bit dazed can't say if this is a must watch or worth a skip .... anyway ... if you are like me and don't mind experimenting ... watch it and you may quite like this affair ... else ... I guess it's pretty safe to give this one a skip.
