This movie was the biggest load of garbage ever made. I found it to be so dumb i was ready to leave the theater but the people i was with didn't so i had to stay through this horrid movie. The whole plot was really dumb and the whole shooting scenes didn't even make sense. Not to mention the dumbness of having a doctor trying to deliver a baby through a gunfight, while he had enough time to leave with the girl and bring her to a hospital. I hope this movie get's all the worst rewards cause it definitely deserved this. I don't understand how this piece of garbage was even allowed to be made

Del Toro seems to get better with every movie. Phillipe is simply cool. I can watch this one over and over to see the car/foot chase in the alley ways - that was original and shot very well. I think Phillipe could show a little more emotion though. Overall what makes this a great film is that it's a collection of very different characters that all get their time on the screen - and that goes for the 2 bodyguards of Juliette Lewis. This film reminded me a bit of Heat. Lots of action punctuated by excellent dialogue. I loved it.

Seems like 1999-2000 was an interesting period for movies with adult themes, but 'Gun' was the one that had to take on the Peckinpah Western (and fail) here are some highlights: -All innocent die quick, while the main chars are either criminals or selfish manipulators. -All the lead characters spout incoherent philoso-babble and hint at convoluted backstory elements in attempt to define their character -gratuitous violence that tries to convince you that it's realistic action -Bad acting - Ryan Phillipe is horrible throughout, while del Toro so pathetically tries to act like a subdued psychopath as his sidekick. James Caan and Tye Diggs do a good job at playing... James Caan and Tye Diggs -really poor plot progression - 'reads' like McQuarrie was too lazy to revise the script after the first draft

Foul-mouthed "metrosexuals" (at the very least) Ryan Phillippe and Benicio Del Toro can't find work in Los Angeles. Despite their sharp haircuts, they are street thugs. So, they kidnap a very pregnant Juliette Lewis for ransom money. As luck would have it, Ms. Lewis turns out to be the surrogate mother for a very wealthy gangster. Mr. Phillippe and Mr. Del Toro ask for 15 million dollars in "unmarked bills" (they're new at this). Things get complicated when Lewis reveals a shocking secret about the baby. Doctor Dylan Kussman provides some plot intrigue and stiff-necked James Caan takes care of unpleasantries. Writer turning director Christopher McQuarrie mixes shoot-out and child labor blood with vociferous ads for the "Coca-Cola" company. *** The Way of the Gun (9/8/00) Christopher McQuarrie ~ Ryan Phillippe, Benicio Del Toro, Juliette Lewis, James Caan

There's nothing like a good gangster movie, enlivened by a few genuinely funny and pithy one-liners. Add to that an original storyline twist (surrogate mother kidnapped to get parents, who turn out to be gangsters too, to pay up) and you have Way of the Gun. At least I thought so. My friend fell asleep and declared it nothing special, which somehow took some of the wind out of my sails. As with similar cult movies (Blood Simple, True Romance, come to mind), part of the enjoyment can be the hype and sharing the joke. Having said that, Way of the Gun contained plenty of fine performances and seemed very well cast. When it crosses into Mexico it is almost a modern-day western.

I think this film is excellent. What a cast! I'm a sucker for any film that includes Juliette Lewis and Benicio del Toro in the cast - neither disappointed in the least. Juliette Lewis plays her part as the pathetic and exploited pregnant girl beautifully whilst Benicio del Toro is just so cool! I loved the opening scene and the closing one, which left wondering why they had ever bothered. Loads of plot twists, loads of violence and, although much of the ground was pretty well documented already, they always seemed to come with a little variation, ie walking the cars in the chase sequence. Recommended.

An extrodinary film as it is Christopher McQuarrie's Directorial Debut. Filled with great long shots and an excellent eye, Christopher proves that he's not just a great wirter. Performances in this movie are fleshed out %100 by each actor, despite the script being a bit dry and quite shallow, it works with the overall mood. The first gun play at the beginning was amazing, well drawn out and executed. Tough guys, easy money, lots of guns and twists along the way. Topped with a Retro-Western musical score which brands this movie like a cow hide. Don't expect a morally happy movie that make's you feel like helping that old lady across the street with this one. But in its defense, the morals are polished just right, like a slow barbaqued steak. Tough on the the outside, fleshy in the middle, and bloody all over.

"There's always free cheese in a mousetrap." Damn, I love that line! Lots of other quotable lines are mixed in this movie. I'm glad they chose Phillipe for the part. At least he's better than Freddie Prinze, Jr. He has more of an edge anyway. Anyways, I love seeing people bleed to death and I enjoy watching C-sections performed with bullets wizzing by the doctor's head, so I really liked this one. I think I'd take this delivery over the more conventional one I saw in DR. T & THE WOMEN. I think my heading says it best here. I'd recommend it, but I think a few weeks from now, I'll hardly remember it.
