\"\"\/I just watched “Knockaround Guys<\/a>” on DVD. It is a decent movie, but it lacks something.<\/p>\n

In short, it looks like a slower, simplier, and American version of “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels<\/a>“. There is the mob and style to it – no question about it. It lacks the details and the depth though. Characters are not well-developed and there is no thrill to it.<\/p>\n

Action is missing some. There is almost no cool talk. Except for a short thingy done by Vin Diesel<\/a> about street fighting before kicking one guy’s butt. That was misplaced though. And there were another two shorties by John Malkovich<\/a>. There was some economy over the acting, although there were plenty of people who could deliver. Why they didn’t – I don’t know.<\/p>\n

Anyway, this is a kind of 6 out of 10 movie. You can watch it or you can skip it – you won’t miss much.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
