Here’s the story- two religious brothers get attacked, then get a vision from God, then go around killing mafiosos, they gain an ally in law enforcement, they lose a friend when they try and take down the big boss, then they decide to go public with their long-lost father, who happens to be the world’s best contract killer in history.

I don’t know if I could come up with a better story than that, but I know plenty of people who do, and they’re not asking for millions of dollars to put it on the screen. I’m not going to pay ten bucks to see a movie just because it’s better than I could make.

In a good movie, every scene, every dialogue, every word has a point. There are no irrelevant jokes- every joke that’s made adds to the profile of the character who said it. Quentin Tarantino makes great movies because he understands that. Troy Duffy just made a bunch of bullet time sequences and pointless jokes and taped them to a crappy plot.
