The Way of the Gun

Description
They make no excuses. They don't ask forgiveness. Their story is without compromise, brutal and simple. Two criminal drifters without sympathy get more than they bargained for after kidnapping and holding for ransom the surrogate mother of a powerful and shady man.

It wants to keep you guessing, but there are so many twists and turns that I gave up trying to guess.

It boastfully claims roaring, bloodletting gunfire to do Sam Peckinpah proud, Joe Kraemer's throbbing percussive score (proving timpani should get more melodies) and any number of quotable, slick dialogue snippets. Swaggering, verbose, soulful and badass.

Rotten, pretentious movie full of minimalist dialogue and self-consciously arty cinematography.

In a way, [McQuarrie] almost seems motivated by the same things that drive his killers: desperation and loot.

Both the picture and its nefarious plot seem self-consciously calculated.

It's a tour-de-force of cinematic invention. But at the same time, it's just about the coldest, most pointless crime movie I've ever seen.

For all its post-modern quirks, The Way of the Gun can't help but feel pointlessly derivative.

An odd mingling of the old and the no-longer-quite-so-new, a picture that shows flashes of wit but as a whole doesn't hang together.

Before you rush out to see what all the noise is about, though, know that The Way of the Gun mounts more aural bullets, swagger and pretense than substance.

Like his characters, McQuarrie's film has two faces: It is overplotted and it is crisply directed.
