Hmm, I think I prefer the whole art on the slip instead of a wrap around on the steel. Looks a little odd with just Phillippe on the front. Only just realised that
 
I haven't thought about this film in years. These kind of odd ball character, off the wall, smart ass dialogue, action thrillers were so popular back in the mid to late 90s, early 2000s. Post Pulp Fiction and back when Tarantino-esque was the thing to do, every time, all the time. Although, I always felt that this one fell more into a kind of homage to the movies of Sam Peckinpah in the 70s, like The Getaway and Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, maybe mixed with some very early Hong Kong John Woo, like A Better Tomorrow, The Killer and definitely Hard Boiled.

I might have to check the film out again and maybe pick this up.
 
One of my Top-10 of All Time favorite movies, love every single thing about it. It's simultaneously brutal, and funny, smart and realistic, disturbingly scary, the most real gunfights and sounds ever in any film! It's an absolute masterpiece, and if there's one thing wrong with all the Mission Impossible sequels, is that Tom Cruise has kept McQuarry from making more like this... wishfully.

Is that Benicio Del Toro? Love his acting after watching him in Sicario!!
I don’t remember this one at all lol
You both have to watch it!

I've got my pre-order in! Can't wait to see this movie for the 1st time very excited.
Also, the $35 for this release is very fair and hoping they maintain this pricing trend.
