Additional InformationTwo professional criminals, Parker (Ryan Phillippe) and Longbaugh (Benicio Del Toro), think they've devised the plan of a lifetime: Kidnap Robin (Juliette Lewis), a pregnant surrogate mother, then collect on the ransom money from the parents-to-be. However, when Parker begins to take a shine to the kidnapping victim, the plan begins to crumble. But it is not until a heavily armed group of mob hit men arrive with the ransom money that Parker and Longbaugh realize they've cooked up a spicy stew of chaos, violence, and confusion. The unborn baby tops it off, making Christopher McQuarrie's THE WAY OF THE GUN a terrifically tense nail-biter.
ReviewsSight and Sound - ...[The] scenes are undercut with lyricism and deadpan wit, and make for flamboyant, richly satisfying denouement..., Premiere - ...Authentic and smart. And what a lurid little plot it has too..., New York Times - ...Stylish and intelligent....THE WAY OF THE GUN feels like a more violent and grim version of a Coen brothers film..., USA Today - "...[An] intricately plotted film....To hear Caan menacingly intone "I can promise you a day of reckoning you will not live long enough to regret" is to remember why this man is a star..."

  • Underrated and forgotten gem

    underrated and over looked thriller from Chris Mcquarrie (writer of the Usual suspects and director of the last two mission impossible films) smart dialogue, cracking pace and cast, with one of the best shoot-outs in Hollywood history.

  • Just the first five minutes awesome, then the story starts...

    If you don't like your language a little on the juicy side, this is not for you. Fantastically scripted, acted, great story, with a few never been done before or since bits, a very overlooked, modern western masterpiece.
