Customer Reviews of Safe Men
Very original and a great sense of humor! Every character in this movie is hilarious and very well acted! I would have to say that Safe Men is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time that relies on a great story instead of cheap gross out humor or other gimicks. You can't help but laugh at all of the scenaros this film takes you through revolving around the 'jewish mafia' and the young men that become entangled in it's not soo violent or dangerous but more velvet jumpsuits and flamable slacks underground.
The only thing it needed was more bad singing.. Really!
I found this one in the bargain bin at the video store and figured I could rent it for 2.50 or buy it for 5.00. I made the right choice and I can now watch this movie whenever I want.
A BAD lounge act is mistaken for the top safe cracking team in Rhode Island, but just maybe they have an ace in the hole. Jewish mobsters, country jam samplers, sweet moustaches, low quality knock-off jeans, and one wierd prosthetic pepper a great comedy. There are real relationships between the characters that give them genuine depth. It cleverly drives the plot with these relationships and avoids falling into the "need-some-money-before-next-Tuesday-clock" that drags around most of the lame-o comedies you see today.
Sam Rockwell is quietly assembling an impressive body of work. Take a look at this one and you can say stuff like "I was way into Sam Rockwell's early stuff a long time ago." and Steve Zahn remains hilarious even though he's the straight-man in this one. They play off of each other and the rest of the cast perfectly.
The story has wide appeal and I haven't run across anyone who hasn't enjoyed it, from my quasi-yuppy sister to my sports nut drinking buddies. Great for a date night, guys movie night, or just when you feel like watching something surprisingly warm, funny, and great.
It's a sin that this thing didn't do better, expecially when you see repetitive "funny wig-and-voice" crap coming from the SNL vets making millions. Take a chance. You will laugh more than you did at Goldmember, smile almost constantly, and feel great when it all wraps up. Definitely needs a DVD release.
Safe Men cracks with wit and oddball humor
Sam Rockwell and Steve Zahn in the same movie is pure brilliance. Zahn usually plays all wacky, offbeat and dumb characters and Rockwell sometimes plays different, but the chemistry between them is great and it makes this movie kickin'. Rockwell and Zahn are wanna be singers who are mistaken by the Jewish Mob or whatever you might call it (the mob include Michael Lerner and Paul Giamatti, they bring rich and snippy atmosphere to their characters, especially Giamatti as Porckchop). Meanwhile their are other two safe men on the loose played hilariously by Mark Ruffalo and Josh Pias. Ruffalo scores big time as Frank (when he tried to react what John Cusack did with the speaker was hilarious). Other funny moments include when Zahn and Rockwell try to break a safe and the woman of the house catches them. They have this long conversation and its , its the giggles. The 2nd would be when Ruffalo and Pias are talking about which Charles Angels they want and like. "Kate Jackson, yeah I used to have a sexual attraction to her when I was a kid" funny and then when their done "let's go get a slow gin fizz". A good time
