Yea, I understand, but I’m one of the uber fans I guess.
Well you have to break it up of course.
No way would I do it in one sitting.
That being said, after seeing the extended versions that’s all I want now.
Oh damn, it is!
Damn, I guess I’m the odd one out, I think Cavill was the best Superman to date.
Cage could have pulled off Waingro, especially if he summoned a more reserved and hyper focused performance, such that he orchestrated in the vastly underrated 2013 film, Joe.
😉
I haven’t read the novel because I want to see the film with fresh eyes, but I can say with utter certainty it is both a prequel/sequel film.
For those that know, please spoiler cover as to the how/why, although I can assume it has to do with Chris and Vincent.
After Trejo gets home from ditching his police tails, he poops in a chimichanga and puts it in his fridge to prank his wife, but Waingro unexpectedly shows up before she can take a bite of the dirty sanchez donut supreme.
After Waingro murders Trejo and his wife he raids the fridge because he has the after-rage-killing munchies, takes a massive bite of the shitty-changa and vows to get his revenge on Trejo, somehow, someway. After McCauley puts Waingro’s light out in the hotel, Waingro awakens at the River Styx where he sells his soul to the boatman, Charon, to take him to where the spirit of Trejo resides to enact his revenge.
I’m not saying that it doesn’t have the possibility to be a let down, just that I have faith in Mann to do the film justice.
And the fact that it is both a prequel as well as a sequel tied into one,
Godfather II sort of thing, works better imo than a straight sequel. We get back story, more character world building, more of a reason to empathize, sympathize, or even loath the characters on the screen.
And I’m a fan of Driver, he gets a lot of hate on this board but imo he is a fine actor, maybe not exceptional like De Niro was, but extremely competent in his craft.
