Way of the Gun, The

Way of the Gun, The

2000

Academy Award-winner Benicio del Toro and Ryan Phillippe star in this directorial debut by Oscar-winning writer Christopher MacQuarrie (The Usual Suspects). The action kicks in when criminal microminds Longbaugh and Parker kidnap the wrong pregnant mother (Juliette Lewis). Packed with twists, turns, car chases, shootouts and a killer supporting turn by James Caan, The Way of the Gun is old-school action with a chancrous underbelly of dry wit.
