Customer Reviews of Knockaround Guys - Spanish subtitles
OK Movie I was expecting this to be pretty bad. It wasn't. It wasn't very good either. The story, the pacing and for the most part, the acting (especially Pepper, who was excellent) was good, and it's fairly beleivable. Malkovich is hamming it up as usual, a few of the characters are poorly written, it is in serious need of a good soundtrack, and it's predictable. It ain't Goodfella's, but it's not as bad as the critics would have you believe either. <

Surprisingly Good!
This is a film that deserves some credit for originality because the story and plot are something that the actors obviously had some fun with. Aside from someone getting killed near the end of the film, this is a film with a sense of humor.

>Vin Diesel, Barry Pepper, Seth Green, and Dennis Hopper give good performances. This is a light film that doesn't take a lot of thought to get, which is okay.

<
>Without going into a plot synopsis (I'm not going to explain something you can see for yourself), I will say that the story unfolds after Johnny Marbles (Seth Green) misplaces a valuable item earmarked for delivery to the New York mob at an airport in Montana. A contingency from New York headed by of Pepper and Diesel appear and set out in search of the lost item. They do this by first finding the biggest badass in the town and then proceed to beat the cr*p out of him.

>It sounds like pretty half-baked idea, but then, the story continues to unfold. In the end, there's a little plot twist. One little thing about the movie I thought was cool was that they showed guys - some of the characters - playing handball in the courts outside Central Park. At the end of the film, the Malkovich character has a few things to say about losing at handball (and how much he doesn't like losing) at the end of the film. I could relate.

>This isn't exactly a screen epic, but I gave it five stars anyway, because it's a very good 'B' film.

Vin Diesel in a tight t-shirt -- and a good movie too!!
Ok, let's face it. I got it to look at Diesel in the tight t-shirt, which in my humble opinion, is a darn good reason for renting the thing if nothing else.

>On the other hand, there may be those who want more in a movie: a plot, good actors, action, etc. You're in luck. This movie has that, too. You not only have greats Dennis Hopper and John Malkovich, but also some young men who definately will be greats in their own time, like Barry Pepper, Andrew Devoli, Seth Green, and the reason I bought the flick -- Vin Diesel.

<
>Matty (Barry Pepper), convinced as a child that he was not "up" to being a mobster, has been trying to get a straight job but keeps getting shot down because his father is the infamous Benny Chains (Dennis Hopper). My first thought here was "Why not move to another state where folks have no idea who Benny Chains is?", which was the reaction in a small Montana town but I guess that would have killed the story.

<
>Anyway, he finally convinces Dad to trust him with a money delievery which goes very wrong. His pal, Marbles (Seth Green), gets paniced and loses the money bag. (Knowing Marbles was a former junkie, why didn't Matty go with him?) Matty is desperate to get the bag back and enlists help from a couple of friends, Chris Scarpa (Andrew Davoli), and Taylor Reese (Vin Diesel).

>I'm not a Seth Green fan. However, his death scene was absolutely wonderful. I was surprised at how he handled it. He did as much with simple expressions as some actors could with a page full of lines. Very well done. Vin Diesel seems to do better in movies (Pitch Black aside) where he is not the main character. As a backup he is consistantly very good. No exception here. He is the bad boy in the group. (In his first scene no one ever explained WHY he bashed in his own machines before roughing up the owner of the store. Seemed stupid to me...) Onward. THE FIGHT SCENE. In order to get information they decide they need to find out who the toughest guy in town is, beat the crap out of him, and take it from there. They find the guy who isn't the least bit afraid of them. As he and Diesel stand nose to nose, Vin takes off his jacket (once my breathing normalized I noticed the bad guy had much the same reaction as myself!) and starts his "500 fights" monologue. This is obviously a psychologigal ploy to get the bad guys thinking and nervous. It works. Then Diesel beats the crap out of him.

>The road to the money gets rockier as time goes on, resulting in a good action climax.

<
>The movie isn't flawless, but some of the acting definately was. Not a bad actor in the bunch, good action, decent plot. Well worth owning.
