I have not seen it in a while and forgot how good it is. Some of the best car chase scenes I can remember.

Good call - got a little off track in the middle and Kilmer failed to sell some of the dialogue, but otherwise solid. But I'm a sucker for most things Mamet - especially if it's got Ricky Jay in it.

Re: Ronin
The director intentionally never said what was in the case. Part of the movies mystique I guess. I just cant figure what the Russians wanted that badly?

Re: Ronin
No, no, it's revealed in the last 30 seconds of the film, during a voice over of a radio report about the peace accords.
Also, the briefcase in Pulp Fiction? That was the soul of the black gangster. Remember the cut/scar on the back of the black gangster's head? That was where/how the soul is removed by his enemies (Satan's helpers, possibly). There are religious hidden messages all over Pulp Fiction.

Re: Ronin
I thought the peace accords went on because the bad guy faction was taken out?
Spartan was so-so. Kingdom was a good flick, and takers for "Way of the Gun"?
Almost wish they had made a sequel to Ronin. It was kind of set up in the alternate ending where the girl is kidnapped.

Re: Ronin
Ronin was an excellent movie. Great acting, cool car chase, gunplay was good. I also wished they would have made a sequel.

the stuff that was in the case in Pulp Fiction is the stolen goods from the movie reservoir dogs.

Re: Ronin
The car chase scenes are hilarious. Pay attention to De Niro--he's scared to death as his car gets towed at high speed--he looks just like what he must be--a New Yorker who's always chauffeured around town, forced to face traffic behind the wheel.
It's the only time I've not seen De Niro play his scene well. He's absolutely petrified watching the view in front of him.

Re: Ronin
I just ambushed you into a cup of coffee.
I did hurt someones feelings once.
What's a grasshopper ? That's two part gin, two part brandy..
Draw it again. You're the ace field man. Draw it again.

Re: Ronin
Watched Spartan the other day because of this thread....
Not impressed at all.... The story might of been good if not for the horrible acting.

+1 A good movie that snuck under the popularity radar.

Re: Ronin
This movie has some of the best lines and scenes ever in a movie. I have the extended version on DVD. I watch it regularly with the ending where Dedra is kidnapped as she goes to visit Sam in the bar. Rumor was a squeal was planned.
I think the weakest part is the car chase only because Sam acts and looks like he cannot drive to be super spook.
Have to watch it now!
