domino

I definitely would have watched Domino in the theatre had I known how perversely entertaining it was. best line: "I knew in my heart of hearts that we should have stopped when my goldfish died. It was a sign from a higher power." other highlights: cell phone interference leads to an arm being cut off unnecessarily; Ian Zearing and Brian Austin Green play themselves as washed-out celebrities hosting a reality show called bounty squad; Mo'Nique on Jerry Springer preaching about a new mixed-race nomenclature that includes "Chinegro," "Blactino" and "Japanic." other highlights included macy gray, delroy lindo as "charlie" to the 3 bounty hunter angels, keira knightly, mickey rourke and edgar ramirez, keira flirting with lucy liu, and no pretense whatsoever about being a "true story" despite characters based on the real domino harvey (who died before the film came out), real life bounty hunter zeke unger and real life bail bondsman celes king III. I was not bored during this movie, not once. delroy lindo - raised in england, moved to toronto, then san francisco. not to mention incredibly talented.

I can't believe you didn't see it in the theater (and I did!).
