    The Matador

    [​IMG]

    Cast

    Pierce Brosnan - Julian Noble
    Greg Kinnear - Danny Wright
    Hope Davis - Carolyn 'Bean' Wright


    Plot

    A chance encounter between a travelling salesman and a lonely hitman triggers a strangely profound relationship which provokes each to act in ways neither would have imagined possible. Fate steps in to form a friendship between two men from irreconcilable worlds that will alter the lives of both forever.


    Review

    This movie is a refreshing change of pace from all of the generic comedies that seem to be appearing in theaters. The plot in this particular film, unlike most comedies, is exciting, funny, and serious. The matador has also managed to rip Pierce Brosnan out of his suave womenizing typecast. But this is not a bad thing, he plays a sleezy hitman surprisingly well. I would definately recommend seeing this film when you have a chance. It's a great change of pace from the movies that plagued the theaters the past few months.

    My Rating: 4.25/5.00
