The Whole Ten Yards [HD]



A Paltry Shadow of the Original
Thanks to falsified dental records supplied by his former neighbor Nicholas Oz Oseransky, retired hitman Jimmy The Tulip Tudeski now spends his days compulsively cleaning his house and perfecting his culinary skills with his wife, Jill, a purported assassin who has yet to pull off a clean hit. Suddenly, an uninvited and unwelcome connection to their past unexpectedly shows up on Jimmy and Jill's doorstep: it's Oz, and he's begging them to help him rescue his wife from the Hungarian mob. To complicate matters even further, the men, who are out to get Oz, are led by Lazlo Gogolak, a childhood rival of Jimmy's and another notorious hitman. Oz, Jimmy and Jill will have to go the whole nine yards--and then some--to manage the mounting Mafioso mayhem.

There isn't much about this film to enjoy. I was hoping it would be a lot funnier than it was, but I just didn't laugh at anything except Kevin Pollack's character who was hard to understand most of the time. I had no problem with...

Worst Movie I have seen in Several years
My wife brought this turkey home from Blockbuster. The plot and dialogue is lame. A husband and wife team are "hit men." The wife can't shoot straight and the husbnad is retired from the business. the plot centers around a Hungarian mob leader who is released from prison and wants vengance on the retired hit man (Bruce Willis) and a dentist, Mathew Perry. It goes down hill from here. The only interesting characters were the mobster and his son and the son was killed off about mid-movie. This move is a real stinker. Don't waste your time.

9 is Greater than 10
'The Whole Ten Yards' continues the stories of the dentist Oz (played by Matt Perry) and his former neighbor and retired contract killer, Jimmy the Tulip Tudeski (played by Bruce Willis). After escaping with millions of dollars in Mob money in the 'The Whole Nine Yards,' Oz has married Jimmy's ex-wife and moved to California to set up a practice. Jimmy has moved to Mexico with Jill, Oz's former assistant, who has taken up contract killing herself. Jimmy's former boss, Lazlo, is released from jail, and quickly sets out to find Jimmy and what happened to his son, Yanni.

The Good: two words: Kevin Pollack. He stole the show and was the highlight of the movie. His character is like a father to a gang of bumbling mobsters that are constantly bickering and can't keep their hands to themselves. His accent and tendency to mix up his idioms is hysterical.

Also Good: There are select scenes between Jimmy and Oz, and some with Jill (played by Amanda Peet) that...
